Book Description

September 20, 2004
1943. Hall, the American philosopher, in over a period of 20 years of dynamic public activity, has steadfastly sought recognition of the belief that world civilization can only be perfected when human beings meet on a common ground of intelligence, cooperation and worthy purpose. The book begins: In spite of human prejudice to the contrary, there is but one religion and one truth, and all the great faiths of the world are parts or fragments of the Ancient Wisdom. The Scriptures of the world are the written records devised both to preserve and at the same time to conceal the secrets of the forty-nine branches of the Eternal Law. It naturally follows that there is a certain interdependence between religious writings. To understand any one sacred book completely it is necessary to also understand all other sacred books.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Stunning New Perspective, September 21, 2009
By 
Quinton Figueroa (Scottsdale, AZ USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Understand Your Bible: A Philosopher's Interpretation of Obscure and Puzzling Passages (Paperback)
Considering that the author and title of this book are both respectable, I knew I had to check this work out.

About 1/3 of the way through, the book became so philosophical and metaphorical that I had to actually take a break from the book and cool it for a few days. The book actually had me somewhat frustrated with my current beliefs and the perspective Manly P Hall was bringing in.

However, with time and lots of thought I have come to completely appreciate and admire his perspective and this book. I really think Manly P Hall brings forth and excellent way to understand our Bible.

I would recommend this book to anybody looking to broaden and enhance their understanding of the world's most popular book.
