PREUNDERSTANDING
Preunderstanding refers to all of our preconceived notions and understanding that we bring to the text, which have been formulated, both consciously and subconsciously, before we actually study the text in detail.
![Page 16: GGW Wk 7 - What Do We Bring To The Textstorage.cloversites.com/sandiegochristianfellowship/documents/GG… · Zondervan Handbook to the Bible, Alexander SINGLE-VOLUME COMMENTARIES](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01dc777e708231d4016497/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PREUNDERSTANDING
The Dangers of Preunderstanding:
• Pride
• Theological Agenda
• Familiarity
• Cultural Baggage

PREUNDERSTANDING
Pride “encourages us to think that we have got the correct meaning before we have made the appropriate effort to recover it. Pride does not listen. It knows.”
- Kevin Vanhoozer

PREUNDERSTANDING
What is interpretational reflex?
The automatic transportation of the biblical text into our cultural world.
![Page 19: GGW Wk 7 - What Do We Bring To The Textstorage.cloversites.com/sandiegochristianfellowship/documents/GG… · Zondervan Handbook to the Bible, Alexander SINGLE-VOLUME COMMENTARIES](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01dc777e708231d4016497/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PREUNDERSTANDING
The Impact of Interpretational Reflex?
• We fill in the gaps in the biblical text with explanations and background from our culture.
• Our cultural background limits the possibilities of a text even before we grapple with the intended meaning.

PREUNDERSTANDING
What is a foundational belief
While we must let our preunderstanding change each time we study the passage, foundational beliefs do not change as we read a passage. Foundational beliefs are connected to our overall view of the Bible.

PREUNDERSTANDING
Evangelical Foundational Beliefs
• The Bible is the Word of God.
• The Bible is trustworthy and true.
• God has entered into human history; the the supernatural does occur.
• The Bible is not contradictory; it is unified, yet diverse.
