Synopsis Understanding and Applying the Scriptures by : Prof Danny McCain
Understanding and Applying the Scriptures is well-named. It gives an overview of how the Bible was created, from the time it was in the mind of God to the various translations of the Bible we use every day. It also divides the rules of interpreting the Bible into eight general categories with illustrations and projects designed to make these practical. In addition, the book explains how to understand the various special literary devices in the Bible such as psalms, proverbs, prophecies and parables. The final section practically demonstrates how to convert interpretation into application. The book grew out of the authors almost forty years of combined teaching experience. It reflects not so much the scholar's approach to hermeneutics as the practitioner's. The principles taught in this book are the ones the authors use every day in their preparation for teaching and preaching. This book will help you understand the Bible better and apply it more accurately in your life and the lives of those under your ministry

Synopsis Searching the Scriptures by : Charles R. Swindoll
2017 ECPA Christian Book Award Finalist (Christian Living category) Are you getting the spiritual nourishment you need? Optimal health requires optimal nutrition. The same is true spiritually speaking. Without sufficient and regular biblical nutrition, our inner lives begin to suffer the consequences. We become shallow and selfish, more demanding and less gentle, and quick to react impatiently, rashly, and angrily. These are telltale signs of inner malnutrition. In Searching the Scriptures, respected Bible teacher Chuck Swindoll shows us how to dig deep into Scripture and uncover its profound truths for our lives. He outlines the principles of Bible study that will help you understand God’s Word, apply it, and communicate it clearly to those around you. Too many people try to go it alone, without a guide, for this life and the next. Chuck explains how we can fix our own spiritual meals, then invites us to feast on nourishing truths we can discover in God’s Word.

Synopsis Let the Reader Understand by : Dan McCartney
For many people, interpreting the Bible is the art of making it say what they want. Even scholars often treat interpretation as a subjective exercise, not the search for true, objective meaning of texts. But hasn't God spoken definitively in Scripture? Shouldn't we be able to arrive at a good and true interpretation?

Synopsis Journey into God's Word by : J. Scott Duvall
Life is a journey, and like any journey, it requires an accurate, reliable roadmap to get us where we need to go. God has provided such a guide in his Word. But just as a navigator needs to learn how to interpret all the contours and symbols of a map, so also we need to be able to understand how the Bible communicates its directions to us. Journey Into God’s Word helps Bible readers acquire these skills and become better at reading, interpreting, and applying the Bible to life.This abridgment of the bestselling college/seminary textbook Grasping God’s Word takes the proven principles from that book and makes them accessible to people in the church. It starts with general principles of interpretation, then moves on to apply those principles to specific genres and contexts. Hands-on exercises guide readers through the interpretation process, with an emphasis on real-life application.
