Hidden Wisdom In Holy the Bible (Vols. 1-2)

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.The first volume 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. Volume two is an esoteric exegesis of Old Testament stories such as: The Creation The Flood and the Tower The life of Joseph as a Mystery Drama Moses and the Exodus Geoffrey Hodson (1886-1983),
