Book Description
Mystical Reflections on Sacred Scripture is a set of reflections on the Old Testament according to the four senses of Sacred Scripture (the Quadriga). This publication explores these four senses in order to demonstrate how the Old and New Testaments are beautifully intertwined, to increase love for Christ by finding Him in the Old Testament and to revive an appreciation for the various senses of Sacred Scripture. - From the introduction. "Michael Lofton has undertaken an ambitious work, fueled by the noblest desires. He wants to receive and understand the Holy Scriptures as they were received and understood by the early Christians. He wants to read the texts in the spirit in which they were written and preached. Thus he has taken up the Church's most ancient methods of reading the Bible. Now he wants us all to share the excitement of his discovery. He gives us his book not as a final word, but in order to lead us to a fresh beginning." - Mike Aquilina, author, The Fathers of the Church; The Mass of the Early Christians "Michael Lofton has given us a fine set of reflections on selected Scriptures that make use of the Church's tradition of the Four Senses of Scripture. Use it to come deeper into the heart of the word of God." - Mark P. Shea, author, Making Senses Out of Scripture: Reading the Bible as the First Christians Did
