Private Interpretation

[2 Peter 1:20] Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
[21] For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of G-d spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
No prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation: Even in Peter's day, enemies of Y’Shua were twisting the prophecies, giving them personal and bizarre meanings so as to exclude Y’Shua from their fulfillment. But Peter says that prophecy is not of any private interpretation, but its meaning is evident and can be confirmed by others.
The same principle is true for the gift of prophecy today; there must be sober confirmation of any prophetic word, and that not through another prophetic word, but through the Scriptures. In the gift of prophecy, G-d never speaks to only one person, and always provides confirmation.
Prophecy never came by the will of man: It is wrong and invalid to twist prophecy to our own personal meaning, because prophecy does not come from man, but from G-d, though it comes through holy men of G-d - but only as they are moved by the Holy Spirit.
The ancient prophets did not even know the meaning of what themselves wrote. They were carried beyond themselves by the influence of the Divine Spirit, and after ages were alone to discover the object of the prophecy. The fulfillment was to be the absolute proof that the prediction was of G-d, and that it was of no private invention-no discovery made by human sagacity and wisdom, but by the especial revelation of the all-wise G-d. This is sufficiently evident in all the prophecies which have been already fulfilled, and will be equally so in those yet to be fulfilled: the events will point out the prophecy, and the prophecy will be seen to be fulfilled in that event.
All things in Scripture are not alike plain in themselves, nor alike clear unto all: yet those things which are necessary to be known, believed, and observed for salvation are so clearly propounded, and opened in some place of Scripture or other, that not only the learned, but the unlearned, in a due use of the ordinary means, may attain unto a sufficient understanding of them.
We all bring a certain amount of baggage to the text. But that does not mean that biblical interpretation is doomed to reader response bias. No interpretation of Scripture will ever exhaust the meaning of the text. But it is possible for the believer to achieve a grasp of the Bible's teaching that is sufficient to equip him to live the Believers life for the glory of G-d, 2 Tim. 3:16-17.
2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto G-d, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. That means to study yourself, not lesson to the preachers, but you yourself. With the aid of a good commentary, you can draw out the meaning and find the golden nuggets.
