Dirk Philips provides an explanation of how a Christian should interpret Scripture in his Enchiridion. Such chapters as "The Sending of Preachers and Teachers," "The Tabernacle of Moses," and "Of Spiritual Restitution" provide the clearest picture for students of this Anabaptist hermeneutic, a hermeneutic which interprets all of Scripture through the dichotomy of the letter and the Spirit, united in their central theme, Christ and the Church, a reading that can only be found through a hermeneutic of obedience
