Bible

"When I speak of the Bible, I speak more of the New Testament. In the Old Testament, only the first four chapters, Psalms, Book of Job, PROVERBS are the ones we can read once every ten years. But the NEW TESTAMENT can be read every day. The New Testament is the starry heavens in book form. It is mysterious and inextricable. Its radiant thoughts linger in the shadows of infinity, and behind them God hovers. Just don't read it as a novel. The legends of the Bible must be understood. What value is there in Ezopus if we read only the animal stories? Let us remove the animal mask, there is man underneath, and there are human truths. Remove the human mask from the legend, and we find the divine truths. Let the biblical sayings, and especially the words of Jesus, be the first things we read with attention. Mark such sayings with coloured pencil. The very first one you mark should be this saying of JESUS: Blessed are the pure in heart."
