Subject: How literal is the Bible? |
Bible Note: Thank you, Hank. You always hit the nail on the head! When I use the term interpretation, I use it in the 1 Peter 1:20 sense. This question of "literalism" always bothers me. People treat you like you're ignorant for taking the scripture at face value. I wonder how far our legal system would get if we didn't use proper hermeneutics in the interpretation of secular documents? |
