In many ways, the whole of the bible is a “dark saying” (something spoken at night), in the sense, that we must search it out and wrestle with it, to know it; and in so doing to know God! There is a sense in which it is the great riddle, God has given us, that we might know Him through! If God teaches people in this way–where He offers enough that we enter the transformative journey into His Nature, then we see that the Word itself is this useful question which draws us into greater intimacy with Him. If His method of teaching is indeed like the old Jewish teachers–to set up the right questions which trigger us into becoming; to draw us into true transformation–then the Bible is indeed the greatest Jewish teaching, asking us to encounter God in order to know Him.
