Todd Friel introduces the importance of biblical hermeneutics, outlining a four-step process—Observation, Interpretation, Principalization, and Application—to avoid misusing Scripture. He applies this method to often-misused verses like Jeremiah 29:11 and 2 Chronicles 7:14, emphasizing the need to understand the historical and cultural context before applying them to modern situations. Friel also demonstrates the hermeneutics process using Old Testament laws, showing how to derive principles and apply them to contemporary issues.
