Fred,

When I say "manuscripts," I'm obviously not referring to translations.

I think the following page will help you. It's a web page I made on hermeneutics. It provides some great guidelines for understanding the Bible. Link: http://jcsm.org/Education/hermeneutics.htm

God bless and enjoy your studies. Here is another link that you will enjoy. Link: http://study.jcsm.org . We have thousands of sermons online and I noticed you like A.W. Pink and we have sermons from him and his Gleanings in Genesis commentary.

Sincerely,
Jason
