"Skillfully Wielding the Sword" lays down the proper tools for interpreting the Scriptures in very concise and succinct ways. It demonstrates in plain language how to break down the Bible’s metaphoric language in a way that is refreshing so that clear and concise truth is able to resonate.
Other references have addressed such subjects as higher and lower criticism, archaeological findings, and exegetical theories. This book advances into topics such as eisegesis, emotionally-charged words, and power words of the Bible and how they function and operate within Scripture. It also concisely addresses basic exegetical laws, eisegesis laws, understanding what a principle looks like in the Scriptures, and a few labeled figures of speech including the anatomy of a scriptural principle and how it works. Marked out for the reader is the difference between a principle and Law from which an extracted principle is able to be observed.
Mr. Lanier lightly touches upon how to recognize verses that are to be interpreted as literal and when to acknowledge that a verse is metaphoric. Furthermore, he instructs on how to perform “verse construction,” a tool employed to reveal what exactly is being said to the reader. Lastly, a brand new theological tool has been introduced called “bridged theology” which, when used correctly, crystallizes doctrines or truths that are set in conflict one against the other. It is Mr. Lanier’s sincere desire that as you are exposed to these important biblical concepts, you too will be Skillfully Wielding the Sword.
