Principles For Successful Biblical Interpretation w/ Brent Strawn

In this meaningful conversation, Dr. Brent Strawn walks us through the categories of scripture's use of scripture and provides us with a recap of Richard Hays' criteria for meaningful connections between texts.

Dr. Strawn discusses successful attempts at intertextuality and unsuccessful attempts, and the contrast between these helps us see what works and why.
