D. R. Dungan's Hermeneutics: A Text-Book: Table of Contents. SEC. 34. THE DOGMATIC METHOD. (1) Noted for (a) assumption, (b) supposing all true that may be proved. (2) Came into existence during the dark ages. (3) Has been kept alive by ignorance and credulity, on the one hand, and the desire to rule, on the other. (4) Began in Catholicism and is continued in Protestantism. (5) Some truth has been found by it. (6) Not because the Scriptures speak in riddles. (7) It exalts traditions to an equality with the word of God. (8) Now hinders Christian unity. (9) The Bible not a book of proof, but the teaching of God to men. Immer's Hermeneutics. (10) The way doctrines are proved. (11) It finds in the Bible only what it wishes to find. (12) Liberalism adopts this method. 73 SEC. 35. LITERAL INTERPRETATION. (1) Used by dogmatists generally. (2) Makes all the Bible literal. Sometimes assumes meanings which the words in question never have. 79 SEC. 36. THE INDUCTIVE METHOD. (1) What is it? Bacon. (2) The law of analogy. (3) All facts are reported--four particulars. (4) To heed this rule is sometimes difficult. Get all the facts, if possible; get as many as may be gathered; treat them justly. Test of Christianity and of certain laws. (5) This method used generally, except in theology. (a) Blackstone. (b) Witnesses in court. (c) Teachers of science. (d) Political economists. (e) The Bible recognizes the correctness of this method. (6) Inference may be used, if legitimate. (a) Abraham and Lot came out of Egypt. (b) The four kings. (c) King of Jericho, and other kings. (7) Things assumed in the Bible are true. (a) Man's responsibility. (b) An honest heart needed. (c) His general wants. (8) Causes understood when results are named. (9) Truth gathered from approved precedent. Need of caution. How can we know an approved precedent? (10) Should know what the author was intending to say. (11) All facts must agree in pointing to a cause. (12)But not to be rejected for want of philosophical probability-- when? (13) The use of negative facts. Need of caution. (14) Arranging causes in the order of intensity--four illustrations. (15) Can not establish a particular fact from a general statement. 82 CHAPTER V. THE SEVERAL COVENANTS. SEC. 37. NEED OF DISCRIMINATING BETWEEN THE COVENANTS. (1) No one understands his duty without it. (2) May have many things in common, and yet be distinct. (3) Language under one may explain language under an other. When? (4) Each one is supposed to be complete in itself. 106 SEC. 38. THE SEVERAL COVENANTS. (1) Covenant with Adam before the fall. (2) After the fall. (3) With Noah, before the flood. (4) After the flood. (5) With Abraham, respecting Christ. (6) Concerning land. (7) Of circumcision. (8) Covenant at Mt. Sinai. Note.--(9) Covenant made by Christ, and sealed with His blood. 112 http://www.mun.ca/rels/restmov/texts/ddungan/hatb/HATB00C.HTM (4 of 10) [30/08/2003 11:31:43 p.m.]
D. R. Dungan's Hermeneutics: A Text-Book: Table of Contents. SEC. 39. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE COVENANT MADE WITH ISRAEL AT SINAI AND THAT MADE BY CHRIST. (1) Change in the priesthood. (a) Their high priest from the tribe of Levi. (b) Were sinful. (c) Short lived. (d) Made without an oath. (e) Under the law of a carnal commandment. (f) Belonged to the law of Moses only. (g) Was not a ruler. (2) Change in the atonement. (a) In the time of offering. (b) In the priest officiating. (c) In the blood offered. (d) In the place of the offering. (e) In the results of the sacrifice. (3) Respecting limitation. That was national and local, but the covenant of Christ for the whole world, and for all time. (4) They differ in promises. (5) That written on stones; this on the hearts of the people. (6) All in the New Covenant first know the Lord. (7) Sins pardoned--remembered no more. (8) Are born again. (9) In that they worshiped at Jerusalem; in this, anywhere, if in spirit and truth. (10) That has been abolished; this remains. 122 SEC. 40. HOW CAN WE KNOW WHEN THE COVENANT OF CHRIST BEGAN? (1) Christ lived and died under the law. (2) His kingdom then spoken of as at hand. (3) Had so come that men could press into it. (4) But the facts of the gospel had Dot occurred. (5) The limits of Judaism upon the disciples. (6) Law and priesthood changed at the same time. (7) New covenant to issue from Zion. (8) The apostles had the keys of the kingdom. (9) New covenant could not be in force till after the death of Christ. (10) Christ was to be the corner-stone. (11) After Pentecost, the kingdom spoken of as being in existence. (12) It was established on the succeeding Pentecost. Six notes from these facts. 136 SEC. 41. THE TRIAL AS TO THE TIME OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE KINGDOM. (1) If before death of Christ, two laws at once. (2) Texts which put it later can not be true. (3) Jewish limits on disciples show that the law was yet in force. (4) If he had been king here, he would also have been priest. (5) If it existed then it was not set up at Jerusalem. (6) Nor could Peter have used any keys. (7) Would have been built before the laying of the corner-stone. (8) And Paul's illustration pass for nothing. (9) The apostles did not know it was established at the time of the ascension. (10) The gospel could not have been preached in its fulness before the Saviour rose from the dead. 154 CHAPTER VI. THE VALUE AND USE OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY IN THE INTERPRETATION OF THE SCRIPTURES. SEC. 42. WHO WAS THE WRITER? (1) Was he inspired? (2) Educated? (3) Religiously prejudiced? (4) What style of writing? (5) What evils would he most likely be employed against? 156 SSEC. 43. WHO WERE ADDRESSED? (1) Their history? (2) Education? (3) Customs. (4) Sins peculiar to them? (5) Temptations and liabilities? 162 SEC. 44. WHO ARE SPOKEN OF? Same questions as in Sec. 43, though not as essential. 165 SEC. 45. WHAT KIND OF COMPOSITION? 166 http://www.mun.ca/rels/restmov/texts/ddungan/hatb/HATB00C.HTM (5 of 10) [30/08/2003 11:31:43 p.m.]
