Episode notes
Prioritize The Author’s Intention
- Reading seeks the author's intention as the primary goal of Bible study.
- Tracing an author's train of thought (argument) uncovers that intention.
Break Text Into Propositions
- Break paragraphs into propositions and trace logical connectors like 'because' to see the argument's flow.
- Use those logical relationships to find the author's main point.
Narrative Uses Different Clues
- Narrative communicates authorial intention but signals intention differently than epistles.
- Look for narrative clues like repetition, event order, dialogue, effects, and author comments.
