Interpretation of Scientific Reasoning, Empiricism of Francis Bacon, and The Inductive Reasoning Model of The Holy Books

Abstract

Interpretation is often attached to a reading product that is constrained by various hegemonic means that oppress the text and force the text to produce exposed, ideologically dominant meanings. In this space, interpretation or reading transcends the intended meaning of the text. Various philosophical arguments participate in imprisoning the objective sacred meaning of the text's simple and unpretentious content. This paper aims to analyze the simplicity of the object as the narrator by attaching scientific criteria that align with more standardized interpretation standards. The method chosen for this research is the qualitative method with an interpretive approach. The approach that begins with an examination of this interpretative model is present to dissect objects such as sacred texts and other texts. In this context, the framework of scientific critical reasoning, often called the objective empiricism of Francis Bacon, serves as the foundation for the inductive interpretation model. This research attempts to offer a critical scientific methodological effort as proposed by Francis Bacon by trying to restrain oneself and maintain distance from the object so that the purity of the object being interpreted is visible. The findings of the research indicate that the effort to apply Bacon's empiricism theory can be implemented in the realm of texts, including sacred texts, as an effort to purify the meaning as it is. The possible reductive effort born from the involvement of readers or interpreters in an understanding is avoided in this interpretation model.Interpretation is often attached to a reading product that is constrained by various hegemonic means that oppress the text and force the text to produce exposed, ideologically dominant meanings.
