How many? I need numbers.

What??? I have agency. I move my mouth, my tongue, my lips. If I can't interpret what I'm saying someone else can. I Corinthians 14:27, interpreted right there in the verse!

So the last paragraph let's us know the scripture interprets itself, since stating the same thing over and over always results in a logical and exciting conclusion. Don't you feel excited for more? We'll let you know.

Now we have a list, or teaching, about all the exciting things the scripture interpreted for us! We are smiling now!

Here we are told that we are motivated. To decide for yourself what drives you may be kind of like private interpretation, right? Let's not think about that, we are really blessed.

See! No dictionary needed. All the words are words. Nothing is repeated that isn't repeated.

Now we can get into questions nobody asked. See how we are being told it's the truth? We know it's the truth because it said so. The scripture decided that. No need to question it. That's private interpretation. And another verse, with answers. You will have questions later.

This next sentence seems oddly familiar. Prolly just deja vu. Seems to indicate there will be many examples but I see only one. But, that's my private interpretation. Let's not jump to conclusions.

Now here we have a sentence. Followed by some verses. Not necessarily all from the same area o the book, maybe some verses are skipped. I'd ask if that is out of context but I know that would be interpreting things my own way so we're just going to accept it all at face value.

Okay so two sentences say the same thing. Because repetition repetition repetition. You can't know something without it repeated to you over and over and over and zzzzzzzzzz. *wakes up* Okay . . . The scripture has interpreted itself . . . No work to be done here. And now we *know* something. Now begin reading and enjoying the Bible . . . After we know it. So don't interpret anything . . . The work has already been done.

Word salad is a great way to deal with rejection.

II Peter 1:20: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private [one’s own] interpretation. There's a Bible verse in here too. We haven't learned how to interpret it yet . . . sorry . . . it interprets itself . . . so don't bother reading it. The verse is really just there to frame a place for all the sentences and words around it. We should focus on those.

God never meant for us to interpret the Word for ourselves; we do not need to, nor should we. Instead, we can learn how the Scripture interprets itself in three main ways Okay . . . God doesn't want us to interpret the scriptures for ourselves . . . BUT . . . we can learn how the Scripture interprets itself Why . . . Why . . . am I going to read it if it interprets itself . . . I really don't feel needed in this process.

"Have you ever felt that the Bible is a closed book?" - Is this a joke? lol "Many people feel this way because they have never been taught how to understand the Bible." . . . . .This is the same idea as "nobody can go beyond what they've been taught". . . . .You can't do anything right. You neeeeeeed Us. "People have been left trying to interpret the Word for themselves." . . . This sentence 'feels' dropped out of the air. I'm picturing succors on the side of the road holding a Bible while Jesus gets on the bus and doesn't wave. . . . But but . . . what does this mean???

"Scripture Interprets Itself" - I don't know what this means. If I need something interpreted, it's because it's written in a language I don't understand. Or written in code. Soooo . . . . this whole phrase "scripture interprets itself" is meant to suggest to the mind that's there decoding to take place? A secret message? And point #1 - "In the verse" . . . . pretty sure this book wasn't written down in verses . . . are we playing "I don't understand why you don't understand" here? You just told me I'm doing it wrong. #2 "in the context" - context of what? #3 "used before" . . . .where? Out of context?

https://thewayinternational.com/the-scripture-interprets-itself-in-the-verse-right-where-it-is-written/ God never meant for us to interpret the Word for ourselves; we do not need to, nor should we. Instead, we can learn how the Scripture interprets itself in three main ways: (1) In the verse, (2) In the context, and (3) Used before.

We're doing the "It is written" stuff, right? Like Jesus with the Debil, "it is written . . ha gotcha" Forcing minds to look down into a book, as if the book wrote itself. Actually, written communication is 1 of 3 reasons thought to contribute the shrinking of the human brain over the past 3000 years.
