==The Biblical warrant for hermeneutics==
Because eternal life comes from and through Jesus ([[Joh 14:6]], [[Joh 17:3]]), one some may be tempted to say that they know Jesus, and therefor do not need to read or understand the Bible. But many who '''believed they knew Jesus''' will be turned away. ([[Mt 7:23]])
Among those who studied the scriptures diligently were the scribes and Pharisees. Using the methods of human hermeneutics they missed the point of the scriptures. ([[Joh 5:39]]) He rebuked the most educated religious scholars for a single error of doctrine which revealed that they did not know the scriptures nor the power of God. ([[Mt 22:29]], [[Mr 12:24]]) They mistakenly believed that there was marriage in heaven because they did not know how to read the scriptures properly. ([[Mt 22:30]], [[Mr 12:25]]) One who believes that the marriage of the Lamb is after the resurrection or in heaven ([[Re 19:7]], [[Re 19:9]]) may wish to learn to read the scriptures properly.
After following Jesus for three years, even the disciples did not understand the scriptures. ([[Lu 24:27]], [[Lu 24:32]]), but required that he reteach it to them after the resurrection ([[Lu 24:45]]).
As the apostles began to preach, they taught the scriptures and how to interpret them correctly, reasoning with their listeners to convince them that Jesus was the promised Messiah. ([[Ac 17:2]], [[Joh 5Ac 18:3924]] Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life, [[Ac 18: and they are they which testify of me.28]])
They did not teach by means of their own ability, nor by their own interpretation, but even as the prophets of old were moved by God to prophesy ([[2Pe 1:20]], [[2Pe 1:21]]), the apostles were moved by God to interpret scripture correctly. ([[2Pe 1:19]]) They even had the Holy Ghost to remind them of what they had learned ([[Joh 14:26]]), and to help them formulate their sermons([[Lu 12:12]]).
Do not stop there with your reasoning! The apostles did not retain an exclusive rights to the Holy Ghost. Paul reminded us that God is able to establish us in the "preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began". ([[Ro 16:25]])
Lu 24Jesus taught the apostles who were commanded to teach others ([[Mt 28:27 And beginning at Moses 20]]) and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himselfthey did.Lu 24([[Ac 5:32 And they said one to another25]], Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way[[Ac 18:11]], and while he opened to us the scriptures?Lu 24[[2Ti 2:45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,2]]).
Ac 17:2 And PaulProper hermeneutics were taught by the apostles, as his manner was, went and that teaching is contained in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the New Testament scriptures,Ac 18:24 ¶ And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, [. From the prophets and] mighty in the scriptures, came apostles we can learn to Ephesus.Ac 18:28 For he mightily convinced read the Jewsscriptures properly, [and especially when that] publickly, shewing teaching is accompanied by the scriptures that Jesus was ChristHoly Ghost.([[Jas 1:5]])
