Delve into the components of your lens through exegesis on scripture, reasoning, experience, and traditions. Understand the pros and cons of prescriptive scripture, inherited traditions, and relational experiences. Learn to conduct thorough exegesis steps: reading in context, formulating pericopes, identifying literary structures, drawing themes, and defining terms. Utilize parallel passages with cultural background analysis for deeper insights. Apply hermeneutical principles to passages like the Widow's Offering (Mark 12:13-44) for practical understanding.
