Hermeneutical Principle

Some further believe that God’s word is direct and complete. In contrast, others noted that the biblical scripture must always have a deeper “spiritual” interpretation. They said that it is God’s message and the truth is undeniably clever.
Moreover, the website revealed that others have maintained that people must interpret some parts of the Scripture literally and some figuratively.
As further revealed, there are four primary kinds of hermeneutics such as literal, moral, figurative, and anagogical.
