	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Biblical Exegesis
		Exegesis is the branch of theology which investigates and expresses the true sense of Sacred Scripture.
		Exegesis aims at investigating the sense of Sacred Scripture; its method is contained in the rules of interpretation; its results are expressed in the various ways in which the sense of the Bible is wont to be communicated; its history comprises the work done by Christian and Jewish interpreters, by Catholics and Protestants.
		Catholic exegesis subsequent to the Council of Trent may be divided into three stages: the first may be regarded as the terminus of the Scholastic period; the second forms the transition from the old to the new exegesis; and the third comprises the exegetical work of recent times.

	Principles of Greek Exegesis
		Exegesis incorporates the use of a number steps such as lexical, grammatical, historical, and textual analysis, and provides the means for accurate understanding of the New Testament.

		It is a fiercely argued exegesis of Shakespeare's plays in the tradition of Samuel Johnson, Hazlitt and A. Bradley, a study that is as passionate as it is erudite.
		These are tightly argued, crisp exercises in literary and cultural exegesis which make perfectly clear the brilliant patterns of language and oftentimes strained analogic thinking of the poets.
		Exegesis comes from Greek, from exegeisthai, "to explain, to interpret," from ex-, "out of" + hegeisthai, "to lead, to guide." Thus an exegesis is, at root, "a leading or guiding out of" a complexity.

	Note on Method: Exegesis
		Exegesis includes not only a linguistic and literary explanation of the meaning of the words, but it also involves a judgment as to what those words are referring to and what they are meant to accomplish.
		It would even be accurate to describe the kind of exegesis that has been done in the first part of this book as restressing the obvious or highlighting the more likely approaches in the exegesis of scripture in the area of the roles of men and women.
		A type of exegesis has developed in the area of the roles of men and women that is a distinctive exegesis, with a set of characteristic principles and opinions of its own, that can be historically attributed to the influence of the recent feminist movement.

	Thematic Exegesis According to Martyr Sadr (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Thematic exegesis is the method to recognize, interpret and make clear a subject mentioned in the Holy Qur'an by taking note of verses which bear commonality and share a purport or have a phraseology which helps determine the topic.
		Moreover, exegesis in order of the traditional arrangement cannot meet the present needs of the society since it deals with each and every ayah in a separate and disintegrated form and simply presents a large number of unrelated guidelines, injunctions and concepts without analysing the viewpoints of Qur'an on a particular issue.
		In contrast to the method of tartibi exegesis which might have a variety of approaches depending on the school of ijtihad of the exegete or his philosophical, gnostic, mystical, scientific, historical and various other leanings, thematic exegesis is free of such shades.

	Tess Brady Exegesis
		An exegesis which accompanies a creative work and is written by the creator of that work, should not, for example, pre-empt the critic and offer a review of the creative work.
		The exegesis then, since it is written by the creator of the work, should not be a criticism of the work after the normal fashion of the critical review.
		Since this exegesis relies and draws upon a reader's knowledge of the novel, it is suggested that the novel be read before the exegesis.

	H. Utzchneider, "Text - Reader - Author: Towards a Theory of Exegesis: Some European Viewpoints
		On the fringes of scientific exegesis, forms of contextual exegesis have evolvedthe exegesis initiated by liberation theology, for example, or feminist exegesis, psychoanalytical exegesis, biblio-dramaall forms which have a considerable fascination for the academic and the non-academic public.
		The task of a "theory of exegesis" would therefore be to construct a system of co-ordinates which would offer a basis for transformations of the traditional questions in keeping with the times, and would make it possible to integrate recent scientific trends, as well as the dialogue with contextual approaches.
		Diachronic exegesis is inconceivable without synchronic elementsthat is to say, without taking account of the linguistic form of the presently existing text; and conversely, synchronic exegesis cannot denyand generally has no wish to denythe complex history of the text's development.

		Other forms of eisegesis are simply bad exegesis, reading into the bible things not there such as cessationism and infant baptism, post millenialism, clericalism, and ecumenical unity with the non regenerate and churches which are not biblically Evangelical.

		One method of Exegesis that we will not have time to cover here is Jewish Exegesis or ‘Midrash.’ We must remember that the Bible was written primarily by Jews and for Jews as a whole and therefore to interpret scripture without their world view would be an injustice to the original authors meaning.

		The principal conclusion reached is that, while the case for such tafsir is, at present, rather weak, a credible tafsir 'ilmi may come into existence if it is authentically anchored in the larger Islamic tradition.
		1505)--may be cited as supporting the idea of scientific exegesis of the Qur'an, tafsir 'ilmi is obviously not a historically well established area; only in modern times has a relatively sustained attempt been made to establish it as an independent discipline, on a par with other types of tafsir.
		The historical absence of a well-defined field of tafsir 'ilmi would seem to cast suspicion on the project that such tafsir represents, for such tafsir, one is tempted to think, lacks the sanction of tradition.

	WHAT IS EXEGESIS?

		Exegesis essays can be organized verse-by-verse, section-by-section, or by parts thought to be most important.

	Cardinal Ratzinger, Biblical Exegesis and the Church, TCRNews, (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Needless to say, any lecture given by the head of what was formerly known as The Holy Office and which promised to be examining and critiquing the very “foundations” of modern exegesis (which today is completely identified with the so-called historical-critical method) was bound to raise eyebrows and cause no little commotion.
		The kind of criticism that the former theology professor called for is one that would aim at and be able to expose the “appearance of quasi-clinical-scientific certainty” which posed as the method for so long.
		Ratzinger is confident that such a critique will give the lie to the notion of pure objectivity as an “absurd abstraction”, and show that “every exegesis requires an ‘inter’, an entering in, and a being ‘inter’ or between things; this is the involvement of the interpreter himself.

		Exegesis is the process of approaching Bible interpretation with a humble spirit, and an open mind.
		Exegesis is not merely an intellectual exercise we do all alone.

		So exegesis is simply the business of leading ourselves or others out of ignorance into understanding; specifically, it is the process of beginning with a passage of Scripture and discovering its meaning(s), of making the opaque transparent, translucent.
		This task is broken down into seven distinct elements: survey; analysis of the context; analysis of the form, structure, and movement of the text; detailed analysis of the text; synthesis; reflection on the text for today; and expansion and refinement of the exegesis.
		Gorman's book is an excellent tool for teaching the basics of exegesis to college students with little to no background in critical biblical studies.
