Interview 28: Exegetical Fallacies (Jerry Wierwille)

Listen Later

Why are there so many divergent beliefs about what the bible teaches?  Partially, this results from mistakes we make when reading scripture.  In this interview, Dr. Jerry Wierwille enumerates seven typical fallacies that bible students commit when reading:

  1. Root Fallacy
  2. Time-Frame Fallacy
  3. Misusing Parallels Fallacy
  4. Single Meaning Fallacy
  5. Word-Concept Fallacy
  6. Disjunctive Fallacy
  7. Lexical Fallacy

    8. Avoiding these pitfalls will help you engage with scripture better and build solid understandings that can stand up to critical analysis.
