Basil the Great and Gregory of Nyssa on Biblical Interpretation
Among the luminaries of the early Church were two brothers: Basil the Great and Gregory of Nyssa. Both were bishops, wrote theological treatises and made important contributions to the Church. And yet their style of biblical interpretation was very different. How and why?

Christ as Interpreter of the Scriptures, Part 2
All the Old Testament is interpreted in the light of Christ. He fulfilled the Law, both rejecting extreme legalism but also expanding it, showing that he expected us to go beyond the Law. The Ten Commandments are NOT the standard for Christians. Why not? What does it mean?

Jesus Christ as an Interpreter of the Scriptures
We have often read about Jesus in the Scriptures but how did he himself interpret them? Christ's own interpretations of Jewish Scriptures along with his methodology and attitude toward them laid the foundation of how the Christian Church would apply them.

The Jewish Interpretation of the Scriptures
The roots of Orthodox biblical interpretation are found in Christ himself, followed by the apostles. How did Jesus interpret the Scriptures? How did other rabbis interpret them? Why does the Bible even require interpretation if we are all using the same New Testament?

Jesus Misbehaving: Christian Apocrypha
False books, "apocrypha," were written by heretics who signed the names of apostles to give them credibility. But some apocrypha were not heretical. They contained stories about the youth of Jesus or the Virgin Mary. Is there anything wrong with reading those stories?
