The Bible presents us with a metanarrative of redemption, which involves a divine missional objective accomplished through a messianic redeemer. This metanarrative is properly understood in terms of its grounding in the purposes of creation, its cohesiveness throughout Scripture, its objectives in the present and coming ages, and its ultimate fulfillment through the person of Jesus. A basic understanding of it equips the interpreter with an important missional and messianic hermeneutic, which greatly aids in the exegesis and application of the biblical text.
Lesson 10 of my current Hermeneutics course provides an overview of the biblical metanarrative of redemption. Audio and notes may be accessed here.
