The Bible in a Spiritual Perspective

Many reject the Bible precisely because of its miraculous dimension and precisely because the churches demand a belief in dogmas that are incomprehensible to the mind. For many, the God of the Bible is unacceptable because of His seeming inhumanity. But we can also read the books of the Bible as if they are the representation of timelessly valid laws of development for the human being and humanity. They are spiritual texts. Their stories and “miracles” express soul-spiritual realities. In this view, the history of the people of Israel becomes exemplary for the story of every single person.
