A layman's guide to interpreting the Bible

by Walter A. Henrichsen

Interpreting the Bible is an imperative part of understanding the God revealed to us through His Word and how that God wants to affect our lives. This volume takes Bible interpretation out of the seminary classroom and the vocabulary of the specialist, and brings it to the level where most Christians live. In easy-to-understand language, the author specifically covers grammatical, historical, and theological principles of interpretation. A study guide at the back of the book helps to reinforce the principles by guiding the reader through the process of interpreting specific Bible passages.

This has been my "go to" book for implementing a solid understanding in my Bible studies. Simple and thoughtful guidance in how to recognize the use of language and interpretation. I give a summary of these chapters to my new disciples in the Word of God.
