Eisegesis and Exegesis



Eisegesis

Interpreting Text or portion of text in such a way that the process introduces

Ones Own Presupposition/Agendas/Self and not Shared Beliefs



Exegesis

Extensive And Critical Interpretation Of A Text

Especially Holy Scripture




Eisegesis VS Exegesis


Eisegesis

Interpreting  Sacred Text does not permit and has no room for Eisegesis


s

Exegesis

One interprets the Scripture as it is (Sacred Text)


Exegesis

Interpreting Scripture

Survey - Investigate Context - Fine Tuning - Detail the Content - Synthesize 

Apply (Practice What You Preach)


Eg: Story Of Joshua

Josshua is not Yeshua (Jesus)

Looks the same Sounds the same but not the same
