Hank’s Prologue:
- Hank summarizes key principles of biblical interpretation as found in his flipchart, L-I-G-H-T-S on Your Path to Reading the Bible For All It’s Worth. Since God’s Word is divine rather than merely human in origin, it is imperative for believers to understand what God has said. This requires understanding hermeneutics, or the art and science of biblical interpretation. Hank makes this task easy with his acronym L-I-G-H-T-S, which stands for Literal Principle, Illumination Principle, Grammatical Principle, Historical Principle, Typology Principle, and Scriptural Synergy.
