Opening the Treasure of the Scriptures: Some Biblical Crumbs - Paperback

by Brother Richard of Taize (Author)

From the inexhaustible treasure which is the Bible, here are a few crumbs. They represent an attempt at serious exegesis and theological reflection as well as a desire to understand not only the Bible, but also our own time and our world. It was the Risen Christ, on the road to Emmaus, who first "opened the Scriptures" to his fellow travelers (Luke 24:32). It is as his disciples and in his steps that we can draw from that treasure "things both new and old" (see Matt 13:52).
