I am currently reading several books for a course in Christian theology. While reading through James White's Scripture Alone, I came across a helpful definition of exegesis juxtaposed against eisegesis. Note especially the terms lead and insert used to contrast the two.

"To exegete a passage is to lead the native meaning out from the words; to eisegete a passage is to insert a foreign meaning into the words" (pp 81).

2 Timothy 3:12a: Where is My Persecution?

Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted... (2 Timothy 3:12a).

If persecution is missing, then a desire to live godly is also missing.
