PRINCIPLES OF BIBLICAL HERMENETICS ; M. M. NINAN IV BASIC HERMENEUTICAL PRINCIPLES At least eleven times in eleven different verses in the New Testament alone, the phrase “being interpreted” or “by interpretation” has been rendered from the original Greek language; • “being interpreted” Matthew 1:23, Mark 5:41, Mark 15:22, Mark 15:34, John 1:38, John 1:41, and Acts 4:36 • “by interpretation” John 1:42, John 9:7, Acts 9:36, and Acts 13:8 These indicate that some amount of interpretation is inherent in any literature and this applies to scripture as well. In fact all documents being written in words needs interpretation and interpretation needs ruless. Hermeneutically the following categorization can be made: PRINCIPLE #1: THE ELECTION PRINCIPLE Corinthians 2:12-15: Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. ("appraised" in NASB) But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. (KJV) This principle says that only those who have the Spirit of of God within them will be able to discern the spiritual things. The idea is that just as only those who have the five senses can sense physical realities, only those who has senses within the Spiritual dimensions can sense Spiritual things. 53
PRINCIPLES OF BIBLICAL HERMENETICS ; M. M. NINAN 1 Corinthians 2:14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 54
