Yana Jenay Conner breaks it down - plain and simple โ the difference between shaping Scripture to fit us and letting Scripture shape itself.
๐๐พ Eisegesis = when we impose our own ideas onto Scripture.
๐๐พ Exegesis = when we do the work to uncover the authorโs intended meaning of the Scripture
Itโs not about reading what we want to see, but discovering whatโs really there. Read humbly. Read honestly. Let the Word speak. ๐โ๏ธ
