Giới thiệu

The Ridley Interpretive Model is a structured hermeneutical framework used by Ridley Theological College in Melbourne to guide biblical interpretation. This mind map template organizes 45 nodes across four core branches: Prayer (Look Up), Exegesis (Look Down), Biblical Theology (Look Back/Look Forward), and Application (Look Here). It provides a step-by-step process for interpreting Scripture, from prayerful dependence through exegetical analysis, theological reflection, and practical application. Key nodes include 'Determine Author', 'Key THEME Statement', and 'What sort of response should WE make to this word from God?' The model emphasizes a holistic approach that integrates spiritual disciplines with rigorous study, making it a valuable tool for students, pastors, and Bible study leaders.
