What does the Bible say about interpretation of scripture?

The Bible teaches that the interpretation of scripture does not rest on personal opinions or views, but rather on what God intends to convey through His Word. As stated in 2 Peter 1:20-21, 'No prophecy of scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.' This underscores the authority of God’s revelation, emphasizing that true understanding comes only from God revealing Himself to us rather than through our own reasoning.
