What do we mean when we say “principles of biblical interpretation”? Dr. James W. Voelz, Dr. Jack Dean Kingsbury Professor of New Testament Theology at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, joins Andy and Sarah to talk about his book Principles of Biblical Interpretation for Everyone, including who this book is for, what “biblical interpretation” means, why it’s important to have a common or shared set of principles of interpretation, why we can’t just leave the Bible literally, and a key foundation to establishing principles for biblical interpretation.
