Excerpt from Principles of Biblical Interpretation, Vol. 1: Translated From the in Library
Among ourselves, sound general learning and native talent have enabled many men to become good expositors of Scripture: but Bib lical Interpretation has not, among us, been formed into a science; nor have any very me morable attempts been made to reduce its prin ciples into a system. In Germany, on the contrary, Hermeneutics, as distinguished from Exegesz's that is to say, the Principles of In terpretation, as distinguished from Actual In terpretation, have long occupied the attention of scholars. Among these, Morus, Keil, Beck, Seiler, and J ahn, are eminent; but, by the con current testimony, both of Protestant and Ro mish critics, the Institutio of Ernesti still re tains the same rank in Hermeneutics that the Elements of Euclid do in Geometry.
