This has been extremely helpful to me as I study out this particular subject of the third temple. Thank you.

Amidst many interpretation, this is the right one taking into account the full council of GOD.

Three modes of interpretation in the New Testament: typological interpretation, literal-contextual interpretation and principle application interpretation.

A message about the development of the Canon of Scripture and about the role of textual criticism.

The great part of the message treats the Modern Period, discussing form critique and redaction critique.

A presentation of the development in the East, especially John of Damascus, and in the West, the rediscovery of Aristotelian philosophy and it's use in theology.

Postmodern ideas: there is not ultimate significance in the text, the reader is creating the significance of the text. There is no absolute interpretation, there are as many interpretations as readers. Power can make one particular interpretation normative.

Differences between Theistic and Rationalistic thinking and the reaction of Postmodernism to Modernism.

The interpretation schools of Alexandria and Antioch, Clement of Alexandria and Origen, Theodor of Mopsuestia and Theodoret. The idea of apostolic succession.

Useful presentation of Philo's allegorical interpretation of the Scriptures as learned from Plato. Greek philosophy used in Biblical interpretation and it's dangers.

Interesting observations about the qumranic interpretation of OT and the early Christian, Christological interpretation of the OT.

Contributions of Anselm, Abelard and Aquinas to biblical hermeneutics, followed by Luther's and Calvin's contributions. Rejection of allegorical interpretation, adoption of literal interpretation and of the Sola Scriptura principle.

Thankyou dear brother Spellman for this challenging as well as encouraging sermon. I am on an odyssey of listening to a sermon from each book of the Bible,preached by a speaker whom i have not heard before.This is a blessed venture.May the Lord be pleased to bless your ministry to the glory of His name.
