Exegesis (also known as the Historical-grammatical method) is a critical interpretation of any text, especially of religious texts such as the [[Bible]] or [[Qur'an]]. More specifically it is an extensive investigation of the original meaning of a text in its historical and literary contexts. A person skilled in the science of exegesis is known as an exegete. The opposite of this would be [[eisegesis]]. | Exegesis (also known as the Historical-grammatical method) is a critical interpretation of any text, especially of religious texts such as the [[Bible]] or [[Qur'an]].
