Thank you ?
Audiences relevance
Not listening to Calvinist lol
Todd friel has a good series called drive by hermeneutics.
Read understanding and applying the Bible
One rule of thumb is to not interpret the meaning of a passage in isolation, but rather read 20 verses before and 20 verses after to establish the context. This often includes reading the previous or following chapter. Also look for other cross references from elsewhere in scripture to help establish a correct interpretation.
Michael Hobbs first of all, an understanding that the plenary does not contain any contradictions James 1:25. Then know that context is everything; sometimes the context is not immediate and can come from other books or anther covenant Romans 25:4. Also know that the scriptures were written for us to understand; apply the same hermeneutics to scripture as you do in your everyday reading.
You cannot learn true Hermanutics by watching Youtube videos. Smh. Pick up a book. Get involved in a good seminary and study.
Michael Hobbs Just understand that two opposing teachings of same passage and doctrine cannot both be correct. That should keep.you busy for a lifetime. Also know Greek and Hebrew Fluently

Observation—What does the text say.
Interpretation—What does the text mean in it’s original context to its original audience.
Application—How should I live in light of what I’ve learned.
The meaning of a passage is always static. There is only one meaning for any verse of Scripture.
Here’s an excellent book on hermeneutics.

Is that like a harmonica?
Start by reading “Playing with Fire” by Walt Russell
“Herman who” by Todd Friel is really good
why would you want to do hermenuctics?
Scripture should interpret Scripture first and foremost
Biblical hermeneutics is the study of the principles of interpretation concerning the books of the Bible. It is part of the broader field of hermeneutics, which involves the study of principles of interpretation for all forms of communication, nonverbal and verbal.
Is Jesus Christ being the Great Teacher used hermeneutics?
Step One is being able to pronounce hermeneutics without sounding like you have a cold
I would say four fundamentals for proper hermeneutics: language, culture, geography and epoch.
Ask 3 questions:
1. What did it mean then? (context, language studies, lexicon, cultural studies, doctrinal studies, historical studies)
2. What does it mean now? (having the Holy Spirit to teach us, spirit not letter of the law, understanding the covenants, learning the difference between essentials and non-essentials, knowing basic theology, knowing the creeds, after the resurrection)
3. How do we apply it today? (avoiding new legalism, avoiding vain traditions, wisdom, discernment, prayer, experience, lifelong study of the Bible, multitude of counsel, the cross we carry)
Hermeneutics require theologians and scholars to instruct the believer for the proper study and interpretation. This is necessary for pastors who prepares his sermon and when the pastor is doing the counselling. Laymen can get online courses if they want to engage in arguments with the other differing teachings or religion. But we can make our own interpretations because most of the texts are clear and simple. It’s when we quote verses out of context that makes it all wrong.
Look up Herman who by wretched
Great books on the subject. Like Living by the Book, by Howard Hendricks, Understanding and applying the Bible, by Robertson McQuilkin just to name a couple.
Hermeneutics is the way to know what scripture says. To say you dont need hermeneutics to understand scripture is like saying you dont need to know English to read english literature
I have videos on it.
