Lesson 4: Examine (Interpretation)

How to R.E.A.P. the Bible

September 9, 2018 • Chris Reighley



Reading the Bible is only the beginning. To truly understand God’s message, we must move from observation to interpretation. In this lesson, we focus on what the text means—not what we feel it means, but what the author intended. By examining the content, context, and culture, we learn to handle God’s Word with reverence and accuracy.

Outline:

  1. Why Interpretation Matters (2 Timothy 2:15)
  2. Pitfalls to Avoid When Interpreting Scripture
  3. Five Keys to Understanding the Text
  4. Learning to Let Scripture Speak for Itself
