What is Black Ecclesia Interpretation?

This is the finale to our Camp My Seminary Life series on Hermeneutics as I review "Reading While Black" by Esau McCaulley. In this episode, i breakdown some of the main portions of the book, talk about McCaulley's approach to Black Ecclesia Interpretation, and what it was like for me as a white man to read a book that was not directly for me. I also spend time showing how this 5 Star book fits well with another 5 Star book we have reviewed on the show, "Misreading Scripture with Western Eyes."

What was the purpose of the Tabernacle? What is the Ark of the Covenant and why did it exist? Why was God so specific in His instructions on how to worship Him? What is the importance of gold being used inside of the Tabernacle? How should Christians react to verses and chapters that don't appeal to them? How does the priestly system point towards Jesus? Why is it foolishness to deny the historicity of the Exodus and other scripture as well? What is the original meaning of the word altar in Hebrew? Why were silver and bronze used further away from the inside of the Tabernacle? What was the purpose of the olive oil and the lamps in the Tabernacle?

The Summer Camp series on Hermeneutics is back with episode four of five with an introductory look at Biclical Criticism. In this episode, I discuss briefly what Literary Criticism and Historical Criticism is, how they can positively play a role in our Hermeneutical process, and some of the paths that people take to arrive at conclusions that I myself may not agree with. I also breakdown the long-standing, unhealthy mentality that some Christians have of "it's not from my group therefore it is wrong."

What is wrong about lying in court? How should Christians handle themselves in lawsuits? How does this compare to one's beliefs in following the opinions of the majority? Why should we not favor the rich or poor? Why are bribes evil? How are we to love our enemies? What does any of this have to do with oppressing sojourners in the land? What is the point of the Sabbath and holidays ordained by God for the Israelites to follow? Why does God warn the people of Israel to listen to what He has to say? Who is God's angel and is this an early appearance of Jesus? Why does God not show His fullness to Moses, the priests, and the elders? How long does Moses stay on Mt. Sinai?
