One of the most respected Bible scholars of the 19th century, British clergyman ETHELBERT WILLIAM BULLINGER (1837-1913) here offers his guide to understanding the "inexhaustible" Word of God as revealed in the Bible. In this classic religious work, first published in 1921, Bullinger discusses: . The One Great Object of the Word. The One Great Subject of the Word. The One Great Requirement of the Word-"Rightly Dividing" It. The Meaning of Words to be Gathered from the Scope; not the Scope from the Words. The Scope of a Passage to be Gathered from its Structure. The Biblical Usage of Words Essential to their Correct Interpretation. The Context Always Essential to the Interpretation of Words. The First Occurrence of Words, Expressions, and Utterances Often Essential to their Interpretation. The Place Where a Passage Occurs is Often Essential to its Full Interpretation. No One Passage to be Interpreted in a Sense Repugnant to Others that are Clear. The Importance of Accuracy in the Study of the Words of Scripture. and more.
