Let’s discusses the FACT that the Bible is fundamentally a Greek document, let’s also explores the mythological elements within biblical stories, and reflect on how these stories should be interpreted. "THE BIBLE IS A GREEK DOCUMENT" Greek Origins of the Bible: - The New Testament was written in Greek, and the Old Testament was translated into Greek around 300 BC, known as the Septuagint. - The Septuagint became the primary biblical text for the Western world, created by Greek-influenced Jewish scholars in Alexandria, Egypt, under the cultural impact of Alexander the Great and Greek mythology. - Mythological Elements in Biblical Stories: - The text highlights several biblical stories that feature talking animals (snakes, donkeys), miraculous events (walking on water, splitting the Red Sea, virgin births, dancing bones), and other supernatural occurrences. - These stories are described as mythological, not literal history, and are compared to other Greek myths like Pegasus and Medusa, which are generally considered fairy tales subject to Interpretation and Symbolism: - The argument is that it is a mistake to interpret some parts of the Bible as symbolic and others as literal, especially when the text does not clarify which is which. - The Role of Mythology: - Rather than disproving the Bible, mythology is presented as a coded language that conveys deeper truths about the subatomic realm and parallel universes—concepts unknown to ancient peoples but now understood through science. - - ONLY those who are spiritually enlightened, often through meditation, can grasp the hidden meanings within biblical mythology. Guidance for Reading Scripture: - Readers are encouraged to focus on the underlying principles rather than the literal stories or characters. - - Mythical stories are said to be intentionally constructed to challenge those who do not pursue spiritual enlightenment through meditation.
