“The Bible is not primarily a written or printed text to be scrutinized in private, in a scholar's study or a contemplative cell. It is a body of oral messages, announcements, prophecies, promulgations, recitals, histories, songs of praise, lamentations, etc., which are meant either to be uttered or at least read aloud, or chanted, or sung, or recited in a community convoked for the purpose of a living celebration.” BodyPurposeSongCommunityStudyWrittenMessagesPraiseCellsContemplationEtcCelebrationScholarProphecyPrintedContemplativeAnnouncementsLamentationRecitals Author:Thomas Merton
“There are no accidents in Nature. Every motion of the constantly shifting bodies in the world is timed to the occasion for some definite, fore-ordered end.
