Exegesis (from the {{Greek Name|ἐξηγεῖσθαι|exēgēisthai}}; "[[Name means::to lead out]]") is a critical exposition, commentary or interpretation of ancient texts, especially religious books such as the [[Bible]] or [[Qur'an]]. The opposite of an exegetical reading of Scripture is [[eisegesis]], and instead of reading out what the text plainly presents, it reads into the text what the reader is influenced by.
