Podcasts about Exegesis

Welcome to Day 2806 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – Exegesis vs. Eisegesis: How We Read the Bible Matters. Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2806 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps!   I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2806 of our Trek.   The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website   theologyinfive.com.   Today's lesson is titled  Exegesis vs. Eisegesis: How We Read the Bible Matters. When we read the Bible, we never approach it as a blank slate. We bring assumptions, cultural filters, personal experiences, and expectations. Scripture, however, demands that we lay those things down. The way we approach the Bible determines whether we are hearing God's voice or simply amplifying our own. This is where the distinction between exegesis and eisegesis becomes critical. Exegesis is the process of drawing meaning out of a biblical passage based on its context, grammar, historical background, and literary structure. The term comes from a Greek word meaning “to lead out.” It asks what the author intended to communicate to the original audience and what God is saying through that text. Eisegesis, on the other hand, means “to lead into.” It involves importing one's own ideas or assumptions into the text, whether consciously or not. While it may sound harmless, eisegesis can distort theology, promote error, and mislead sincere readers. The first segment is: Laodicea and the Lukewarm Church. Revelation three verse sixteen says, “So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth.” A common interpretation suggests that Jesus prefers people to be either fully committed or openly rebellious rather than half-hearted. But this understanding contradicts the consistent call in Scripture for repentance and faith. Laodicea's geography explains the metaphor. The city sat between Colossae, known for cold, refreshing water, and Hierapolis, famous for its hot springs. By the time water reached Laodicea through aqueducts, it was lukewarm, mineral-heavy, and unpleasant. Jesus is not comparing spiritual passion and apathy. He is saying the church had become spiritually useless, offering neither refreshment nor healing. Exegesis brings this context to light. Eisegesis misreads the metaphor entirely and turns the passage into a strange statement about God's preferences. The second segment is: Two or Three Gathered. Matthew 18:20 is frequently quoted to affirm the power of small group prayer: “For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” While it sounds encouraging, the verse does not refer to prayer meetings or informal worship. In context, it concludes a section on church discipline. Jesus is assuring His followers that when they faithfully carry out difficult acts of correction or accountability within the church, His authority is present in their decisions. Used out of context, the verse suggests that Jesus is only present when...

In this episode Pastor Bryan challenges the popular but dangerous habit of "narcissistic" Bible reading—treating the Scriptures like a mirror to validate our own feelings rather than a window into the mind of God. By exploring the critical distinction between Eisegesis (reading our own meaning into the text) and Exegesis (drawing God's meaning out of it), we uncover how misusing "inspiring" verses like Jeremiah 29:11 or Philippians 4:13 can actually silence the Holy Spirit's true intent. Listeners will walk away with a practical four-pillar framework for Hermeneutics, shifting from seeking "nuggets of personal approval" to encountering the transformative, Christ-centered reality of the Word.--The PursueGOD Truth podcast is the “easy button” for making disciples – whether you're looking for resources to lead a family devotional, a small group at church, or a one-on-one mentoring relationship.

Send a textExplore the chaotic and visionary mind of Philip K. Dick, the legendary author behind Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report. In this episode of The Day's Grimm, Brian Michael Day and Thomas Grimm dive deep into a life that was arguably weirder than the science fiction stories it inspired.From the tragic infancy of his twin sister to his final days on the cusp of Hollywood fame, Philip K. Dick (PKD) lived on the edge of reality. We examine the "amphetamine-fueled" writing sessions where he produced up to 11 novels in two years, his five failed marriages, and the deep-seated paranoia that led him to believe the FBI was monitoring his every move.A central focus of this deep dive is the bizarre 1974 "2-3-74" event, where Dick claimed a pink beam of light transmitted divine information directly into his brain. This experience sparked an 8,000-page journal known as the Exegesis, where he wrestled with questions about ancient Rome, Gnosticism, and the nature of our reality—decades before "The Matrix" made these concepts mainstream.Whether he was a prophetic genius or a man struggling with substance-induced psychosis, PKD's influence on modern pop culture is undeniable. Join us as we break down the drugs, the delusions, and the legacy of the man who dared to ask: "What is real?" If you enjoyed this deep dive into PKD's chaotic life, hit the subscribe button and drop a comment below letting us know which author or historical figure we should cover next! TIMELINE: 00:00 - Introduction to Philip K.

Gary gives an update on what he's been working on lately, and responds to an article about the antichrist by Jase Robertson. Gary points out that too often Christians read the Bible as if it was written yesterday, rather than thousands of years ago in a completely different historical context. It's "Bob Beamon Exegesis," which Gary also explains.

Preached on Sunday the 22nd of February, 2026.‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭1‬:‭4‬-‭14‬ ‭“having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs. For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”? Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son”? And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God's angels worship him.” Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire.” But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.” And, “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands; they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment, like a robe you will roll them up, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end.” And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?”Intro Music by Julius H. from Pixabay Outro Music by PianoAmor from Pixabay

Part 4 of a series on the history of Israel based on a fair use and transformative reading of "Israel and the Nations: From the Exodus to the Fall of the Second Temple" (Eerdmans, 1963) by FF Bruce. This episode includes interaction with his chapter IV entitled "Solomon and His Successors 970 to 881 BC" by the Rylands Professor of Biblical Criticism and Exegesis, FF Bruce, my intellectual and spiritual grandfather because he mentored my professor Bruce Demarest who himself studied under FF Bruce at the University of Manchester. We're going to do a fair use and make a transformative reading of this material. We'd like to thank Eerdmans for making it available and thank FF Bruce for writing it. It also contains multiple references to Deuteronomy 17. The Republican Professor is a pro-biblical-literacy, pro-Christmas, pro-quality-mentoring, pro-understanding-the-history-of-Israel podcast. The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.

This is a repeat of our very first episode: Veteran interpreter Dr. John Walton describes the process of exegesis — from choosing a text, analyzing the genre and background, and grappling with the "linguistic core" — in this step-by-step explanation of how exegesis is done. Dr. John Walton, Old Testament Professor Emeritus at Wheaton Graduate School, has since become a frequent contributor to this podcast. He has many volumes in his "Lost World" series along with many other publications, including (with Andrew Hill), A Survey of the Old Testament (4th ed.). He is currently collaborating with Dr. Aubrey Buster in preparing a major commentary on Daniel (NICOT), of which the first volume (Daniel 1-6) is out.

Preached on Sunday the 15th of February, 2026.‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭26‬-‭39‬ ‭“Then they sailed to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee. When Jesus had stepped out on land, there met him a man from the city who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and he had not lived in a house but among the tombs. When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him and said with a loud voice, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me.” For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. (For many a time it had seized him. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and shackles, but he would break the bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert.) Jesus then asked him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered him. And they begged him not to command them to depart into the abyss. Now a large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside, and they begged him to let them enter these. So he gave them permission. Then the demons came out of the man and entered the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned. When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country. Then people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid. And those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been healed. Then all the people of the surrounding country of the Gerasenes asked him to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and returned. The man from whom the demons had gone begged that he might be with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying, “Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you.” And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole city how much Jesus had done for him.”Intro Music by Julius H. from Pixabay Outro Music by PianoAmor from Pixabay

Will we ever fully know and understand God? And if we could … would that even be God? In this final episode of our Unexpected Divine conversations, Revs. Brittany and Hannah explore John 1:18: “No one has ever seen God. It is God, the only Son, who is close to the Father’s heart, who has made him known.” Through their conversation, the female pastors of First United Methodist Church of San Diego use poetic theology, humor, and real-life reflection to wrestle with: What it means that Jesus “exegetes” (reveals) the heart of God Why mystery is not a weakness of faith, but its depth How Jesus reshapes our understanding of transcendence Why not knowing everything about God doesn’t excuse us from justice Whether Christocentrism is compatible with Jesus’ own ministry How diversity in religions may reflect the vastness of the Divine From TikTok analogies to the Grand Canyon, from Mary & Martha to Sankofa, this conversation invites us into a faith that is expansive, relational, and beautifully unfinished. Reflection Questions: What does Jesus show us about God? Which ideas about God have shaped my faith, and which no longer help me grow? What does it mean that God is not “seen” but is still “made known”?

Does the word "Theology" intimidate you? You aren't alone. If you have ever wondered how to understand the bible for beginners without getting overwhelmed by big words or massive books, this episode is exactly what you need.Many Christians believe theology is reserved for pastors with advanced degrees, but that couldn't be further from the truth. In this video, we reveal that "doing theology" is simply about knowing God better. We break down the five essential types of theology Micro, Biblical, Systematic, Historical, and Pastoral and show you how they are actually simple habits you can start today.Whether you are trying to understand a single verse (Exegesis) or grasp the big picture of God's story (Biblical Theology), these five methods will give you a roadmap. We also discuss why looking at church history matters and how to apply these truths to your daily life (Pastoral Theology).Stop feeling unqualified to read Scripture!

Año XX. Núm. 23. La historia de la conversión de San Pablo de camino a Damasco está empañada por un gran mito que en esta emisión desmentimos.

In this weeks podcast episode I discuss effective bible study techniques and methodologies that help us to read and understand the Bible in its proper historical, cultural, literary and linguistic context. Here are the Key Concepts we discussed.Biblical Interpretation and Context Discipleship: Emphasizes that learning is often more caught than taught, highlighting the importance of context in biblical preaching. Pericopes: Sections of Scripture read as lessons, derived from the Greek word meaning "section." Significant for understanding the oral tradition of Jesus' teachings before the gospels were written.Examples of Pericopes in the Gospels Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7): Illustrates core teachings of Jesus. Instructions for Ministers (Matthew 10:5-42): Guidance for ministry. Parables of the Kingdom (Matthew 13:1-52): Illustrates the nature of God's kingdom.The Bible's Purpose The Bible is not primarily about the individual; rather, it serves as God's self-revelation, showcasing His character and attributes. It is written "for" us but not directly "to" us.Communication StylesGod uses diverse genres to communicate: narrative history, poetry, laws, parables, and letters, ensuring effective transmission of His message across different human conditions.Basic Principles of Interpretation- God's Overall Plan: Spanning from creation to the consummation of redemption, demonstrating a cohesive narrative.Understanding Background: Employ the "Five W's" (Who, What, Where, When, Why) to grasp the context of biblical books. Exegesis and HermeneuticsExegesis: Analytical study of biblical texts for interpretation. Hermeneutics: The science of interpreting texts accurately, avoiding eisegesis (reading into the text personal biases).Importance of Context - Historical and cultural contexts are essential for accurate interpretation, ensuring that meanings align with the original audience's understanding.Linguistic Nuances Different meanings of terms like "flesh" in Scripture illustrate the complexity of biblical language and the need for careful interpretation.Thanks for listening to the Greater Works Discipleship Ministries broadcast.

People of Packaging Podcast: Rooting Your Sales Journey in TruthIn this episode, host Adam Peek takes us on a deep dive into his new book, Sales Exegesis: A Pastor's Journey into Packaging Sales. Drawing from his unique background as a pastor and his decade-plus career in the packaging industry, Adam explores why so many sales professionals feel disconnected from their work and how to find dignity and integrity in the sales process.Key Discussion Points:* The Dignity of Sales: Adam discusses how the “manipulative salesperson” stereotype has stripped the dignity from the profession. He shares his passion for helping others rediscover that dignity and find wholeness in their roles.* Integration of Self: Learn how Adam bridged the gap between his personal life as a father and pastor and his professional life in sales, finding that he could be his whole self in every environment.* Exegesis vs. Eisegesis in Sales: * Eisegesis: Sales driven by emotional fear and subjective assumptions (e.g., “They won't want to talk to me” or “Our prices are too high”).* Exegesis: Sales rooted in objective truth and observable data. Adam explains the importance of starting with facts about the prospect and their business before making interpretations.* The Power of Objective Truth: Discover a practical process for gathering “observable facts” about your prospects to build a solid foundation for your sales strategy, free from “head trash” and self-defeating talk.Memorable Quotes:“Integrity comes from the word ‘integer,' which means to be whole. I wanted to be whole in my job—to bring my full self as a father, husband, and pastor into my sales work.”“When you root your sales process in objective truth rather than emotional fear, you're on a much firmer path to success.”Resources Mentioned:* Buy the Book: www.salesexegesis.com* Connect with Adam Peek on LinkedIn: Adam Peek* Learn more about Label King: www.labelking.com This is a public episode.

In this episode of The Classical Mind, hosts Father Wesley Walker and Dr. Junius Johnson dive deep into the fascinating, complex topic of Medieval Exegesis—”specifically how the medievals read the scriptures.”Moving beyond single book analysis, this discussion traces the history of Christian exegesis from the Patristic era (Paul, Origen) to the evolution of the foundational Four Senses of Scripture (literal, allegorical, moral, and anagogical).Discover the critical, often-misunderstood meaning of the Literal Sense and learn how this ancient, nuanced method of biblical interpretation offers powerful intellectual tools for solving modern-day false dichotomies.Endnotes* Junius: The Mystical Ark by Richard of Saint Victor* Wesley: The Selected Spiritual Writings of Hugh of Saint Victor Get full access to The Classical Mind at www.theclassicalmind.com/subscribe

En esta emisión de Pasión por el Evangelio analizamos el pasaje de la Adoración de los Magos que escuchamos en la Santa Misa en la Solemnidad de la Epifanía, pare comprender:-¿Quiénes eran en verdad esos magos?-¿Cuántos eran y de dónde provenían?-¿Por qué portaban oro, incienso y mirra?-¿Por qué Herodes quiso matar al Niño Dios?-¿Por qué los sumos sacerdotes y los escribas, sabiendo que el Mesías nacería en Belén, no fueron a adorarlo ellos también?Además, hacemos un recorrido por la imponente Catedral de Colonia en Alemania, que conserva tres osarios con las reliquias de Melchor, Gaspar y Baltazar, para la veneración de los peregrinos.LOS 4 SUEÑOS DE JOSÉ: UN ANÁLISIS BÍBLICO Descarga el video o el audio de esta interesantísima conferencia aquí

This episode reviews the Christmas message "No Room for Jesus" by examining how Luke 2:7 is often expanded beyond what the text actually says. We address the hermeneutical and theological problems that arise when speculation and cultural outrage replace careful exegesis and Gospel-centered proclamation.

Join biblical scholar Larry Spargimino and Clayton Van Huss on Southwest Radio Ministries' 'Watchman on the Wall' as he delves into the ancient prophecy of a star and a scepter from Numbers 24:17. This insightful audio session explores how this prophecy foretells the coming of Israel's Messiah, linking archaeological discoveries and biblical exegesis to bring a fresh understanding of this ancient text. Discover the connection between the star of prophecy and the Christmas star, and how the prophecy points to the ultimate victory of righteousness. Perfect for those interested in biblical history, theology, and prophecy.

En este episodio de *Pasión por el Evangelio* profundizamos en el mensaje de alegría que la Iglesia nos regala en este tiempo de preparación para la Parusía y la Navidad. A través del análisis de la primera lectura (Isaías) y del Evangelio según San Mateo, descubrimos cómo las profecías se cumplen plenamente en Jesús, el Mesías que “abre los ojos del ciego, hace oír al sordo y pone en pie al paralítico”. Reflexionamos sobre el papel de Juan el Bautista, su misión como precursor y su grandeza espiritual, y a la vez contemplamos lo que significa para nosotros pertenecer al Reino de los Cielos. También meditamos sobre aquello que en nuestra vida genera ceguera, sordera, parálisis o heridas del alma… y cómo este Adviento es una invitación a poner todo ello en manos del Señor que viene.Además, te comparto cómo participar para ganar uno de los **tres premios especiales**: los álbumes espirituales *Semillas de Navidad* y *Semillas de Año Nuevo*, ideales para acompañar tu oración familiar durante estas fiestas.

Un fascinante análisis bíblico que nos ayuda a comprender la persona y misión de Juan el Bautista y su importancia en el tiempo de Adviento.COMPRENDIENDO EL DOGMA DE LA INMACULADA CONCEPCIÓNVe el video de la conferencia en YouTube:Descarga el video en nuestra tienda en línea: ¡VEN PRONTO, SEÑOR!

What's up, everybody! Today is a huge day, December 5, 2025. I'm recording and releasing this on the exact same day because I just couldn't wait to share the news: my new book, Sales Exegesis: A Pastor's Journey into Packaging Sales, is officially out!In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how this book actually came to be. I'm a verbal processor (you guys know I talk better than I type), so I'm sharing the unique process I used to get these thoughts out of my head and onto paper involving 14 years of LinkedIn content, voice memos during my commute to Label King, and training an AI ghostwriter to help structure my “pastor brain” for a sales world.We're talking about building your sales strategy (and life!) on a foundation of observable, objective truth, not lies. Whether you're in packaging, printing, or just trying to navigate life and parenting, this process of Observation, Interpretation, Correlation, and Application is for you.Grab a copy, leave a review, and let's get real about sales.Key Topics & Takeaways:* What is Exegesis? Breaking down the sermon-prep process I used as a pastor and how it applies perfectly to modern sales (and even parenting!).* Truth Over Hype: Why we need to stop lying to ourselves and our prospects, and start operating from a foundation of observable facts.* The “AI Ghostwriter” Method: How I used voice memos during my 30-minute commute and decades of social content to write a book without sitting at a keyboard for months.* The Cover Story: The hidden meaning behind the Vanilla Ice (”Ice-egesis”) vs. DMX (”X-egesis”) graphics on the cover.* Who is this for? It's not just a sales manual; it's a tangible guide for anyone looking to build credibility and solve problems authentically.Mentioned Resources:* Book: Sales Exegesis: A Pastor's Journey into Packaging Sales (Available on Amazon in Kindle & Print!)* Company: Label KingConnect with Adam:* LinkedIn: Adam Peek* TikTok: @thelabelking* Podcast: People of PackagingIf you pick up a copy, it would mean the world to me if you left a review.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we direct our usual mode of esoteric inquiry toward the popular memetic youth-culture phenomena which has produced the viral slogan “67,” “Mangos,” and “Mustard,” often summarized as little more than nonsense phrases intended to signal irony, ambiguity or in-group identity; popularly referred to simply as “Brain Rot.” What we discovered was kind of profound, strangely consistent and totally unexpected; leaving us to ponder the relationship between the Buddha, medieval Christian kabbalists and the rantings of Philip K. Dick in his Exegesis. In the free side of the show we discuss what “Brain Rot” is, how it infected mainstream culture through hip-hop, what it has to do with the Saturn and whether or not our kids are secretly wizards doing esoteric numerology by innate ability by accident. In the extended side of the show we uncover the connection to Buddhism, the Garden of Eden and… testicles?

Jackie Hill Perry asks, “Do you remember when you were blind? When the Word of God was preached to you and it didn't move you?” Until God gives us sight, we can't behold Him. This episode is all about God as the divine initiator of our salvation.
