I was humbled and enlightened. I learned so much about how to properly exegete and a real respect for the original languages. My father, an retired minister, read the book, as well.

Exegetical Fallacies identifies the common grammatical, lexical, cultural, theological, and historical mistakes Bible exegetes can make. Carson argues that when talking about what should not be done in exegesis, the hope is to interpret the Word of God aright. The second edition of Exegetical Fallacies updates old fallacies and presents new ones to help correct these errors while interpreting texts. (60)
