Always seeing the text through your lenses
There is no text without context
The necessity of the interpretive community
Shapes each other to see the world as Christians see it
The community makes you see in the narrative
You can’t see without interpretation

Knowledge and power are inextricably linked
Whenever there is a power system it will form people into their way of seeing the world
