The psychological approach to biblical exegesis is discussed by commenting on several cryptic statements which attempt to capture the gist of this approach. Attention is given to the history of research, methodological and practical issues and it is concluded that this (often neglected) perspective can definitely contribute to the exegetical endeavour.
