How to Understand Your Bible

A Philosopher's Interpretation of Obscure and Puzzling Passages

De: Manly P. Hall

Narrado por: Bobby Brill

In this classic of comparative religion, Manly Hall marshals his considerable familiarity with world religious traditions to argue that sound biblical interpretation requires cross-referencing all the great schools of ancient religion and considering them as one composite structure.

A whole new perspective

Growing up and reading the Bible twice over, I grew up taking the events and stories literally which bought confusion in trying to understand and apply the Bible’s teachings

Manly P Hall does a fantastic job in providing a symbolic perspective and understanding when it comes to the Bible and its history. No one that I’ve ever studied was ever able to explain it in the most simplistic way then MPH

Bobby Brill always does a fantastic job in bringing MPH’s words and content to the reader. There are a few moments in the audio with minor “hiccups” coming from Bobby Brill but these are few and far in between

If you’re looking for a better understanding of the Bible or would like to understand the Bible from a new perspective then I highly recommend this audiobook and MPH teachings overall

Many thanks to both Bobby Brill and MPH!

Educational

Will increase your knowledge of the scripture. Giving you more than one way of looking at scripture. Most people have only a literal interpretation of scripture and they are satisfied with that. But some of us want to get into the meat and deeper things of the scripture. I really enjoy the part about the parables and the miracles of Jesus. as well as the part about the Lord's prayer. Read the book and take away what is useful for you and your life and leave the rest. I will be going through it again and again, taking notes as I go.

Pretty thorough account

Being there is so much to review, it was a great summary of most characters in the Bible as well as the symbolic references to certain elements. All in all, very good. A few mispronunciations which almost threw me off, but easy enough to overlook

To many opinions

Fascinating book however I couldn’t handle him any longer . According to Hall absolutely nothing in the Bible is real or happened, it’s all symbols and algories and it’s just to dam easy for him to continually connect the dots of one symbol or character to everything else on the planet . I couldn’t handle him any longer at Pagans and Christian’s just opinion after opinion after opinions .
