Don: “I agree that the argument INSIDE a pericope can be logical. What I disagree with on a basic level is the idea that one can string verses from various pericopes together as if they were propositions in Euclid’s Elements. This may even happen to work sometimes, but is not a valid method of exegesis. Instead, read each teaching unit’s text as a unit for what it says.”

Prooftexting is always a danger, but this fact does not make cross-referencing illegitimate. I’m criticizing Cheryl’s position from a topical approach.
