A new definition of biblical interpretation

Biblical Interpretation means to   
  • explore all possible bits and pieces in biblical texts; 
  • examine parts-and-the-whole relationships in the text;
  • recognize "multiple worlds" of the text and its complexities;
  • respond to the text critically and self-critically;
  • take a stand without claiming its absolute; and
  • maintain an open-ended approach to the text.
