Just Before You Preach: CRITICAL EXEGESIS VOLUME II: Tools for Biblical Interpretation and Powerful preaching

By Israel Jean-Leon

Many preachers love Scripture-yet still struggle to move from a "good idea" to the text's true meaning. Just Before You Preach, Volume II: Critical Exegesis is the missing bridge between passion and precision.

This is not another inspirational preaching book. It's a hands-on training manual that equips you to interpret the Bible with clarity, integrity, and confidence, so your sermons carry weight, protect your people, and honor God's Word.

Inside, you will learn how to:

Understand critical exegesis, its definitions, history, and core methods (textual, source, form, redaction)

Avoid common misuses that weaken sermons (exegesis vs. eisegesis, where preachers often go wrong)

Combine rigorous study with spiritual discernment, prayer, and dependence on the Holy Spirit

Follow a clear Exegesis-to-Impact Pipeline: historical/literary analysis → theological synthesis → contextualization → homiletical strategy → transformative impact

Diagnose sermon weakness using a sermon-health checklist and the "seven deadly sins" of preaching without exegesis

Walk through real case studies (Old Testament, Gospels, Epistles), including how to preach difficult texts with integrity

Use technology and AI tools wisely, without losing faithfulness to Scripture

Whether you're a seasoned preacher or still building your foundation, this volume will train you to handle the text accurately and preach with conviction that is rooted in truth.
