In my undergraduate experience, the best instruction I have had in biblical exegesis focused on unpacking image and metaphor in scripture. The lesson was that if you can focus on the images it unpacks levels of meaning in terms of the hermeneutics you apply that would otherwise go untapped.<BR/><BR/>I remember used this method in a class with Ulrich Mauser to test it with a different scholar and he was enthusiastic as well.<BR/><BR/>And I feel your pain with the dissertation process.
