Description
Essential to preaching, teaching, and faithful Christian living are the dual tasks of interpretation and application of Scripture—exegesis and theology. For anyone interested in developing a right understanding and application of Scripture, these two complementary volumes from biblical studies experts Jason DeRouchie and Andy Naselli are invaluable resources, forwarding a unified theology and approach to Scripture, as well as a parallel presentation of the Gospel. In a comprehensive, faithful yet conversational manner, Naselli and DeRouchie offer up-to-date, helpful and sound instruction that guides readers through a twelve step process of biblical interpretation that is rooted in a holistic biblical-theological approach.
Beginning with the basic components of exegesis, before moving beyond those to biblical theology, historical theology, systematic theology, and practical theology,
How to Understand and Apply the Old Testament
and
How to Understand and Apply the New Testament
are rich in theological and exegetical insight and packed with examples, practical answers, and recommended resources.
