The Psychology of Biblical Interpretation is the first book to deal with the psychology behind interpretation. Why are there several different evangelical opinions about what the Bible says on the role of women in the home and church, homosexuality, divorce and remarriage, and other matters of social ethics? Dr. Johnson helps us understand this disparity. The following topics are treated: The Mind in Search of Meaning The Meaning of Scripture The Message of Scripture The Use of the Mind in Interpreting Scripture Personality and Interpretation The Unconscious Cognitive Style Perceptual Expectations Creativity and Mental Sets The Dogmatic Person The Church With Half a Brain The Influence of Society and Culture on Interpretation Conflict in an Ambiguous Situation Public Versus Private Interpretation The Needs of the Group and Interpretation.
