A QUESTION

I have been given to understand that the reason seminaries teach Hebrew and Greek is so their students can do their own exegesis.

Although they may only know English, I have heard Christians say "that is not what that scripture says to me".

If you search what theologians say you get a multiple choice of interpretations. However, there is a more excellent way.

At Pentecost Jesus sent the Holy Spirit, the Bible Author, our Teacher, who will give those who diligently seek His indwelling presence for the truth.

What do you think?

Maybe that is why the early church did not have seminaries.

The Bible reallly sheds a lot of light on all of those famous commentaries.

Keep up the good work!

It helps to have some idea what the original languages said. There is often several choices of interpretation. The Holy Spirit needs something to work with. Doug
