| | I don't know, Deborah. When I think of Christian exegesis, I think of how Chritians interprete particular passages of the Old Testament, like Isaiah 7:14, Isaiah 9, etc. I don't think there is nowadays a distinctly Christian way of exgesis other that literary analysis and related ways that other types of literature are exegeted. (In older periods there was Alexandrian way and Antiochian way, though} There are, of course, distinctly Jewish ways of exegeting. If we had something under Christian Exegesis, it would be good to link there. I think all in all, it's O;K. to have the part in question under "Midrash" as I think the term is known to kowledgeable Christians and, of course, to many Jews - and the Midrashic literature does give a different slant on the O.T. than is gotten just from the Biblical text[[User:BertSchlossberg|BertSchlossberg]] 11:20, 1 April 2008 (EDT) | | I don't know, Deborah.

| | + | Christians do not use the word midrash, the term is exclusively a Jewish term, Christian Exegesis do not always have to claim verses are prophetic, I think the section should be part of an article on christian exegesis --<span style="margin-top: -3px;"> [[Image:50 star flag.png|12px]]</span><span style="position:relative; overflow:hidden; width:88px; height:15px; z-index:2;"> [[User:Deborah]] [[Special:Contributions/Deborah|<font color="gray">(contributions)</font>]] [[User_talk:Deborah|<font color="darkslategray">(talk)</font>]]</span> 11:28, 1 April 2008 (EDT) |
