I think what can be deduced from Scripture is equaly the Word of God as the explicit passages, since Jesus deduced 'He is not God of the dead, but of the living' from 'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob', but the first statement does not literally come from the second but the second semantically contains the first.
