Excerpt from How the Bible Grew: The Story as Told by the Book, and Its Keepers
We have inherited the Bible from a distant past, and many Of us have had little opportunity to learn how the inheritance came. We grew up with the Bible frequently in hand and felt its benefit before we knew it to be an inheritance. Because it has helped us we have come to love it.
As the Bible has been an aid, and frequently a com fort, we have learned to revere it. The larger the amount of aid received, the larger has become the reverence. This reverence has Often been increased, unconsciously perhaps, by the fact that we knew so little concerning the history Of the book. One Of the natural elements Of reverence is mystery, and we have found, from our very first questions about the Bible, that it is a book Of great mystery, mysterious in its contents, mysterious as to the way in which it came to our parents and to us.
