Sažetak
In light of the pervasiveness of historical narrative in Scripture, it is vital that this genre be interpreted properly if God's Word is to be understood correctly. This article will list and explain some guidelines that are helpful to use when interpreting the historical narrative sections of the Bible. Additionally, we include a sample interpretation of a historical narrative section from the book of Ruth.
This article assumes use of the general hermeneutical principles applicable to every portion of Scripture (i.e., having an accurate translation, understanding the context, application, etc. However, specific guidelines are particularly important when approaching certain genres of the Bible, and here we will set forth, develop, and nuance these guidelines in such a way that they focus specifically on the interpretation of historical narrative. In line with the design of this volume, these guidelines will primarily be discussed in relationship to verses found in the "Historical Books" section of the OT, as given in the English canon (the books of Joshua through Esther). However, they also apply to the other historical narrative sections of Scripture.
