Dec 27, 2017 at 16:38 comment added Bob Jones Case 5: A does not allegorize anything... it derives allegory from the text, the formation of words, and consistent metaphor applied across all scripture.
Dec 27, 2017 at 16:37 comment added Bob Jones Case 4: they were not popular, they were narrowly used by teh NT authors. The popular version was quickly perverted to allow free-for-all allegory.
Dec 27, 2017 at 16:36 comment added Bob Jones Case 3: A never disregards the essential meaning of scripture as understood by B. "The Pashat (literal) never goes away. B focuses only on Pashat.

Dec 27, 2017 at 16:21 comment added Bob Jones One who does not understand the methods of SP will always think it is free-for-all allegory since they did not bother to discern the origins and prefer to measure truth on what they already know. But it is evident that there is a great divergence.
Dec 27, 2017 at 16:17 comment added Bob Jones Case 5: A can only say that which conforms to the basic rules: It is Christocentric, metaphor must be the same everywhere it is used, and metaphor is derived from the formation of words from its constituents parts and solving riddles consistently throughout scripture.
Dec 27, 2017 at 16:15 comment added Bob Jones Case 4: A uses a method revealed by Christ and evident from the NT authors usage, while being accused of using the methods used by his detractors in order to prevent others from seeing Christ in scripture. A's method eliminates free-for-all exegesis and provides a self-correcting methodology to exegesis.
Dec 27, 2017 at 16:12 comment added Bob Jones +1 However in case 1:"A may hardly care leading to extravagant and even meaningless imaginative claims" is a statement of extreme bias. I might word it: B may spend a great deal of time chasing Greek philosophical ideas, while A is concerned with seeing Christ in each detail." ;) just saying.
