Hermeneutics Videos
I am slowly trying to bring together some videos that may be useful teaching aids for the teacher, speaker, or pastor. If you have, or ever, come across anything useful and think to yourself, “Self, that reminds me of Scott’s Hermeneutics Videos he is trying to compile” then send me an e-mail or post a comment here.
I hope these are valuable to someone, somewhere, possibly at sometime. I believe that as we move into the conceptual age this is how people are consuming information and can be a valuable device in a person’s communication set if used properly!

What I find most interesting in this video is that there are many levels of “pre-understanding” necessary to comprehend, appreciate it, get its ‘message’, and find it ‘humorous’… from Star Wars to 9/11 to bin Laden hiding out, etc. etc…
If someone was unfamiliar with the Star Wars movies then this would probably be difficult to grasp. I suppose ‘intertextuality’, a hermeneutic of suspicion, or weaving narratives together to create new meaning (JEDP) could be possible conversations.

Watch the first minute and you’ll get why it’s here


Hi Scott,
I’ll be teaching Hermeneutics in our seminary here and I’m grateful for your putting up these videos.
Cheers!
I think it would greatly help if you can annotate the videos as to what applicable topics in Hermeneutics they may be applied.
Yea! Annotate these things and quit being so lazy! Get in the game Scott…
I think he’s afraid that if he annotates them then the things will get in the way of the things that are produced from the mouths of giants?
A) I don’t have the time or desire to “annotate”
B) In a subject that has to do with interpretation it would be counter-productive to shape your fore-knowledge and pre-understanding… of course that’s just a cop out for the second part of A
Points well taken. Thanks anyways for ths collections.
Ha ha, Herman Newt has ticks!
