Digging Deep

My approach to teaching is called "grammatical-historical hermeneutic"
It seeks to discover the original intent of the author of a text by studying the grammar/syntax in the author's historical and cultural context.
The goal of interpretation is therefore to discover the (singular) meaning of the writer as he intended that meaning to be communicated to his original audience.
This will result in an accurate understanding of the texts of Scripture that allows the unique voice of each original author to be heard without imposing a preconceived theological system to filter the results.
