Hidden Wisdom in the Holy Bible (Volume 1)

The Bible belongs to a special category of literature. Mystics, Kabbalists, and students of sacred texts regard the Scriptures as allegorical, constructed of symbols, analogies, and parables, woven into a tapestry of meaning that holds the age-old truths of existence.

In this insightful interpretation of the Holy Bible, the profound spiritual and power-bestowing secrets of the sacred language of these allegories are liberated in the revelation of divine truth.

Explains and illustrates:

• How a literal reading of the Bible misses rich meaning concealed in the stories.
• How Biblical symbols were used to encode esoteric truths.
• How the parable of the Prodigal Son illustrates the soul's cycle of forthgoing and return.
• How the life of Christ can be viewed as an initiatory journey.
