What does the Bible say about how to understand Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that we need to be taught by others to understand Scripture, as seen in Acts 8:30-31.

In Acts 8, the Ethiopian eunuch expresses his need for guidance by asking Philip, 'How can I understand these things except some man should guide me?' This highlights the importance of teaching in understanding Scripture. We see in John 6:45 that those who have learned from the Father come to Christ, emphasizing that divine teaching through human vessels is crucial for understanding God's Word. This aligns with Romans 10, where belief in Christ is dependent on hearing the Gospel, which comes from preachers sent by God.
