Advice on reading the Bible

I like Richard Hall's four rules for reading the Bible, especially this one:
My third rule is read in fellowship with others. Remember that the Bible arises from the Church, the gathered people of God. It is in the Church that the meaning of the Bible is authentically discovered and, barring extreme circumstances, you will need to be in fellowship with a Church community to really grow in understanding of the scriptures.
Amen.
