Select a passage and compare and contrast the hermeneutical approach of the three commentaries or articles on this text. It might be helpful seek out at least one commentary that utilizes a literary or contextual approach. Each of the three evaluations you do should be around 150-250 words. (Use
Deuteronomy Chapter 6 for my Scripture)
Select three sermons available on YouTube, Select at least one sermon that represents a perspective or context different from yours–such as someone of a different race or someone far from you on the
theological spectrum. Focus on the part of the sermon where the preacher focuses on the biblical text. (If the sermon doesn’t really do much with the biblical text, choose a different sermon.) Compare and contrast the different hermeneutical perspectives displayed by how each preacher works with the text.
The assignment will probably be a bit easier if you pick a famous text and then find three sermons on
the same text, but that is not required for this assignment. Please provide: 1. Links to the videos; 2. The
approximate times within each sermon where the preacher focuses on the biblical text. Your discussion of each sermon should be around 250 words.
