Summary

After defining two ways in interpreting the Bible, Exegesis and Eisegesis, I walk through some of the most common Bible passages used by Catholics in their attempt to support Purgatory from the Bible. Matthew 5, Matthew 12, 1 Corinthians 3, and Hebrews 12. With each passage, I want the listener to ask, is the Catholic interpretation Exegesis or Eisegesis?

Exegesis vs. Eisegesis

"Exegesis, in short, is to dig out from a passage what it inherently is stating. Eisegesis, on the other hand, is the approach of interpreting passages by reading into them a particular belief that is not at all evident or clear."
