Hermeneutics Standard

The performance was fantastic. It didn't feel like I was listening to a book on such an academic subject as Hermeneutics. We used this as a text book in my Hermeneutics class. I wouldn't object to very much. Over all, a good intro.

This is a MUST read!!!

This book is probably the equivalent of multiple college courses. I highly recommend that anyone whose never had formal instructions on how to read scripture, read this book!

Recipe on how to read the Holy Bible

As you read this book, you are going to have a lot of things and ideas that may challenge your belief system. Don’t worry about it! Read the book as a whole and then use it as reference guide to the parts addressed.

It is a recipe to avoid misinterpretation of the Holy Bible. As often, you will hear things in church that doesn’t sound right. Now in a group, I cringe inside when it is used absolutely wrong! It will open your eyes!!! Keep your eyes on Jesus and let everything else go!

Insightful

The book was referencing to several parts that only apply to a hard copy version. Looks like we missed those out in the audible version.
