Having just finished our Saturday Weekly Series on Hermeutics and the Covenants, I thought it was good to put all in one location the outlines of all three hermeneutics courses we have on our blog. Lord willing, sometime in the future I want to make a fourth level hermeneutics course on Logic for Biblical Hermeneutics.
I think it’s important for Christians in terms of spiritual life, practical theology, systematic theology and apologetics to be conscious of our hermeneutics. To that end, I hope this would be helpful.

[…] Secondly she claims about fundamentalists having a “massive misunderstanding of the genre itself” concerning the literary form of creation accounts. Yet she doesn’t offer actual argumentation for why those creation account have been misunderstood by fundamentalists. From this quote and from the rest of chapter one readers get the feeling that she thinks those who read the Bible in a straight forward manner such as fundamentalists are so ignorant they don’t even know there are literary forms (genres) within the Bible nor are they aware some literary forms are not as straight forward as others such as poetry, parables, etc. But this is a misrepresentation of fundamentalist Christians. Fundamentalists Christians going way back to the publication of The Fundamentals show awareness of the written genres in the Bible. For instance there’s an essay by James Orr titled “THE EARLY NARRATIVES OF GENESIS” which acknowledge this and show awareness of the discussion of interpreting these accounts in a straight forward matter yet he goes on to argue why Christians are to take the early narratives of Genesis in a straight forward matter. It really makes me wonder if Evans have even read fundamentalists themselves given how massive is her misunderstanding and misrepresentation of them. Remember her end notes does not have any citation of any fundamentalists as far as I can tell thus far. Actually her citations in her end notes reveal she’s only parroting things she agree with.
