Exegesis (Biblical)
:
Exegesis is the branch of theology which investigates and expresses the true sense of Sacred Scripture. It aims at
investigating the sense of Sacred Scripture; its method is contained in the rules of interpretation; its results are
expressed in the various ways in which the sense of the Bible is wont to be communicated; its history comprises the
work done by Christian and Jewish interpreters, by Catholics and Protestants

H
Hermeneutics
:
Derived from a Greek word connected with the name of the god Hermes, the reputed messenger and interpreter of the
gods. It would be wrong to infer from this that the word denotes the interpretation or exegesis of Sacred Scripture.
Usage has restricted the meaning of hermeneutics to the science of Biblical exegesis, that is, to the collection of rules
which govern the right interpretation of Sacred Scripture. Exegesis is therefore related to hermeneutics, as language is
to grammar, or as reasoning is to logic. Men spoke and reasoned before there was any grammar or logic; but it is very
difficult to speak correctly and reason rightly at all times and under any circumstances without a knowledge of
grammar and logic. In the same way our early Christian writers explained Sacred Scripture--as it is interpreted in
particular cases even in out days by students of extraordinary talent--without relying on any formal principles of
hermeneutics, but such explanations, if correct, will always be in accordance with the canons of our present-day
science of exegesis.

Jesus

 Latin form of the Greek Iesous

 In Hebrew Jeshua, meaning "Jehovah is salvation."

 The Greek name is connected with verb iasthai, to heal

Christ

 Christos, the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew Messias, means "anointed."

 According to the Old Law, priests, kings, and prophets were supposed to be anointed for their
respective offices; now, the Christ, or the Messias, combined this threefold dignity in His Person. It
is not surprising, therefore, that for centuries the Jews had referred to their expected Deliverer as
"the Anointed";

 The Greeks and Romans understood little or nothing about the import of the word anointed; to them
it did not convey any sacred conception. Hence they substituted Chrestus, or "excellent",
for Christus or "anointed", and Chrestians instead of "Christians."

 He combined in His person the offices of prophet, of king, and of priest; he fulfilled all
the Messianic predictions in a fuller and a higher sense than had been given them by the teachers of
the Synagogue.
