Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning

An ancient rabbinical quote states: "The narratives of the doctrine are its cloak.The simple look only at the garment - that is, upon the narrative of the doctrine; more they know not. The instructed, however, see not merely the cloak, but what the cloak covers." Like all wisdom texts, the Bible is written in a deeply symbolic, coded language with several levels of meaning. In Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning, Thomas Troward explores this deeper meaning and its implications.
