Very well made. I have summarized hermeneutics as '..the attempt to have the most holistic interpretation from all directions of reading, both what's induced textually and what's deduced psychologically. These must be done whilst accounting for the linear progression of what's chronologically certain and keeping speculations on the separate page as much as they too do matter.'

Very beneficial

The modern hermeneutic trend tending to understand the author more than the work itself doesn’t bode well for the humanities studies like Feminism or Gender. I would be driven mad faster than Nietzsche from the church if I had to use such framework.

Used an excuse to interpret scriptures any way one wants. That's why for example you have female Pastors.
You just can't. Some mega oriented churches do this.

From my own studies. It's most likely many texts through many cultures. And much is probably taken from even older religions. The Virgin birth is in so many religion's.
But I don't know if it's true.

Hence why we must always stick to the foundational truth of the scriptures.
