Excerpt from The Presbyterian Quarterly and Princeton Review, Vol. 6 Exegetical Theology is one of the four grand divisions of Theological Science. It is related to the other divisions, historical, systematic, and practical, as the primary and fundamental discipline upon which the others depend, and from which they derive their chief materials. Exegetical Theology has to do especially with the sacred Scriptures, their origin, history, character, exposition, doctrines, and rules of life. It is true that the other branches of theology have likewise to do with the sacred writings, in that their chief material is derived therefrom, but they differ from Exegetical Theology, not only in their methods of using this material, but likewise in the fact, that they do not themselves search out and gather this material, directly from the holy writings, but depend upon Exegetical Theology therefor, whilst their energies are directed in Historical Theology in tracing the development of that material as the determining element in the history of the people of God, in Systematic Theology, in arranging that material in the form most appropriate for systematic study, for attack and defense, in accordance with the needs of the age, in Practical Theology, in, directing that material to the conversion of souls, and training them in the holy life.
