To the Editor:

The Scriptures do not need interpretation; they need understanding. And understanding comes when one comes to the author with that desire in his heart.

To the Editor:

I have read the first two issues of Bible Review. Please accept my congratulations: It is an admirable effort at providing the very best of scholarship in a format accessible to all. It is no small feat to provide such depth of insight and information using style and terminology that is so attractive and so readable.

I know that your most severe critics will be those who will not study the Bible critically. In the face of pseudo-intellectualism, your journal speaks eloquently of a God so creative that the discoveries of scientific research merely confirm His wisdom.

To the Editor:

The Bible is a plain simple book full of three-letter words so everyone can hear God speaking to them. I can’t use a magazine filled with ten-letter words explaining it to me.
