| | Exegesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Exegesis (from the Greek ἐξηγεῖσθαι 'to lead out') involves an extensive and critical interpretation of any text, especially of a holy scripture, such as of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, the Talmud, the Midrash, the Qur'an, etc. An exegete is an expert in this science, and the adjectival form is exegetic. | | | The Mikra comprises the exegetical study of the Pentateuch, the Prophets and the Hagiographa, the three divisions of the Old Testament or Jewish Bible. | | | Revealed exegesis considers that the Holy Ghost inspired the authors of the scriptural texts, and so the words of those texts convey a divine revelation |

| | Exegesis is the branch of theology which investigates and expresses the true sense of Sacred Scripture. | | | Exegesis aims at investigating the sense of Sacred Scripture; its method is contained in the rules of interpretation; its results are expressed in the various ways in which the sense of the Bible is wont to be communicated; its history comprises the work done by Christian and Jewish interpreters, by Catholics and Protestants. | | | With regard to the authorship of the Sacred Books, too, the exegete follows the authoritative teaching of the Church and the prevalent opinions of her theologians on the question of Biblical inspiration. |

| | Biblical Interpretation in Crisis by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger |
| | From this view emerged two challenges for exegesis: it had to explain how one got from the unmessianic, unapocalyptic, prophetic Jesus to the apocalyptic community which worshiped him as Messiah; to a community in which were united Jewish eschatology, stoic philosophy, and mystery religion in a wondrous syncretism. | | | The first presupposition of all exegesis is that it accepts the Bible as a book. | | | Modern exegesis, as we have seen, completely relegated God to the incomprehensible, the otherworldly and the inexpressible in order to be able to treat the biblical text itself as an entirely worldly reality according to natural-scientific methods. |

| | Koranic exegesis was, moreover, not confined to tafs^r works but appeared in all genres of religious writing in Persian, such as the K^m^a@-ye sa¿a@dat of Moháammad GÚaza@l^ (q.v.), the Rawhá al-arwa@há of Ahámad Sam¿a@n^, and the Mat¯naw^ of Ru@m^. | | | Akòba@r^ exegesis of the Koran, the style and content of which are much older than the Safavid period, became during that time a common method of interpreting Islamic scripture. | | | Zoroastrian exegesis differs from similar phenomena in many other religions in that it developed as part of a religious tradition which made little or no use of writing until well into the Sasanian era. |

| | Note on Method: Exegesis |
| | It would even be accurate to describe the kind of exegesis that has been done in the first part of this book as restressing the obvious or highlighting the more likely approaches in the exegesis of scripture in the area of the roles of men and women. | | | There are views of exegesis which would extend the meaning of the word to include the application of scripture passages, but here the narrower definition is used. | | | Christian Liberationist exegesis is an extreme case of a basic trend in scriptural interpretation that operates when scripture seems to teach something directly at odds with current opinions or social trends. |

| | "Inerrancy and New Testament Exegesis" by R. T. France |
| | An exegesis which regards this passage as primarily a miracle-story is wide of the mark; it is a discussion of a practical question of significance for the church in its relations with Judaism, and embodying principles of lasting importance for the Christian vis-a-vis the society to which he belongs. | | | Our decision on this question (which is in any case peripheral to the main point of the passage) will be made not on the basis of a traditional exegesis, but on the estimate of Matthew's (and Jesus') sense of humour or sober literalism to which a study of the Gospel leads us. | | | It is perverse to look for a chronological harmony of accounts which were apparently not intended to be chronologically organised, or to look for a literal agreement of figurative language. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Hermeneutics |
| | To repeat once more, with regard to "matters of faith and morals" there is no progress of the faith in the faithful, but only progress of the faithful in the faith; with regard to other matters, the progress of profane knowledge may throw additional light on the true sense of Sacred Scripture. | | | It would be wrong to infer from this that the word denotes the interpretation or exegesis of Sacred Scripture. | | | Usage has restricted the meaning of hermeneutics to the science of Biblical exegesis, that is, to the collection of rules which govern the right interpretation of Sacred Scripture. |

| | "Can We Reproduce The Exegesis Of The New Testament? Why Are We Still Asking?" by Scott A. Swanson |
| | However, this is far from deriving the NT's exegesis from the OT on grammatical-historical grounds (as is clear, e.g., in the case of Eph 4:8, p. | | | As for pesher, a "this is that" form of exegesis is not fanciful if "that" (OT types, prophecies, symbols) really does speak of "this" (Christ and his people). | | | Since these methods go beyond strictly grammatical-historical exegesis, while we believe their interpretations to be revelation, we cannot ourselves reproduce their exegesis in other texts of the OT. |

| | Medieval Exegesis |
| | Even for those who might sympathize with the teachings which Medieval exegetes professed to be contained in their spiritual reading of the Holy Scriptures, the notion that there is not one detail in the Bible so minute or insignificant that it will not yield spiritual truth is not widely believed today. | | | The monastic life embodied in the Rule of St. Benedict was grounded in the weekly recitation of the Psalter along with biblical canticles in the Daily Office, the hearing of the Scriptures with their exegesis by the Fathers at Matins, and the frequent engagement in lectio divina, the private reading of the Holy Scriptures. | | | Thomas Aquinas, agreeing with Augustine that all Scriptural interpretation is to be drawn from the literal level, adds that "nothing necessary to faith is contained under the spiritual sense which is not elsewhere put forward by the Scripture in its literal sense" (ST I 1, 10, ad 1). |

| | LT75 - NEO-PATRISTIC EXEGESIS: ITS APPROACH AND METHOD - PART I |
| | Medieval exegesis distinguished within the spiritual sense three different aspects, each relating, respectively, to the truth revealed, to the way of life commended and to the final goal to be achieved. | | | Thus a state of tension arose between Catholic followers of the new exegesis and adherents to traditional Catholic exegesis. | | | Access to a proper understanding of biblical texts is only granted to the person who has an affinity with what the text is saying on the basis of life experience. |

| | Exegesis |
| | Exegesis, in its double function of the enarratio of the Scriptural content and of the removal of obscurities by means of the clear passages, is a most serious and sacred occupation. | | | But, on the other hand, it must be maintained that the sure understanding of Scripture in no wise depends on the acquaintance with its secular-historical background, since the entire “historical background” necessary for a correct understanding of the meaning of Scripture is given in Scripture itself. | | | No doubt you will see that this is the case.” Luther is unalterably convinced that God gave Holy Scripture such a form that the entire Christian doctrine is revealed and submitted in passages which need no “exegesis” (exegesis in the sense of removing obscurities). |

| | In this kind of “kneeling exegesis”, this way of encountering God in the Bible, one finds a path to the very heart of the Father, through the Son and in the Holy Spirit. | | | I believe that this simple but essential insight is part of what is meant by the term used by these Scripture scholars a “kneeling exegesis.” It refers to a study of the sacred text that begins with, proceeds through and ends in faith. | | | I have tried in these reflections to express some thoughts on how we can encounter God in His word through a “kneeling exegesis”, a study that is rooted in a life of prayer. |

| | H. Utzchneider, "Text - Reader - Author: Towards a Theory of Exegesis: Some European Viewpoints |
| | Exegesis cannot replace the reading of the Bible inside the church or outside it, nor is this its aim. | | | The goal of this interpretation is not the texts themselves, neither the final text nor "the texts behind the text." The aim is to reconstruct the communication contexts and intentions which take form in these texts, and that means, ultimately speaking, reconstructing the intentions of the author in any given case ("intentio auctoris"). | | | Even if it is not in all cases to be seen as the "parent text," it can and must count as at least the most widely accepted text of reference and comparison for the whole Jewish, Christian and secular translation and reception tradition of the Hebrew Bible. |

| | It is, therefore, the task of the exegetes to work according to these rules towards a thorough understanding and exposition of the meaning of Sacred Scripture, so that from this advance study the judgment of the Church may mature. | | | In light of this analysis, we see that St. Thomas' method of biblical exegesis offers the contemporary exegete and also the pious faithful who study the Scriptures a sound and concrete method of reading and interpreting the Bible. | | | They limit the use of the senses, in that there must always be a similarity between the literal and spiritual sense, but they also allow for an extensive application according to the four senses. |

| | On The Rabbinical Exegesis of an Enhanced Biblical Value of |
| | The author has acquired the knowledge of the Rabbinical exegesis of the verse 1 Kings 7:23 from Rabbi Haim Roth, of Mevasseret Yerushalaim, eleven years ago (the winter of 1979-1980); since then, several scholars in Talmudic studies have confirmed the existence of the exegesis, however, no sources for it were ever mentioned. | | | A methodological remark: whereas the exegesis based on comparison of written-vs.-reading versions of a verse is a very general method in the Rabbinical tradition [Munk 1962, 1968], [Banon 1987], the above exegesis exploits a more rare event: the existence of two almost identical verses. | | | Such a disparity is a common feature for all Books of the Hebrew Bible; and in any such case there exists (or existed: some of this knowledge was definitely lost) a Rabbinical folklore (in fact, strict Rabbinical hermeneutical rules [Steinsaltz 1976, part three: Method], [Britannica 1985], [Banon 1987]) of interpretation of the difference in question. |
