Passage from "Cities that Built the Bible" by Dr. Robert R. Cargill: "Without these actions - translating, interpreting, considering and evaluating, and enacting - the Bible is powerless.

Cargill, Ph.D., The Cities that Built the Bible

Passage from "The Cities that Built the Bible" by Dr. Robert R. Cargill: "The Bible did not one day just magically appear. It did not float down from heaven as a complete document.

Cargill, Ph.D., The Cities that Built the Bible

Passage from "The Cities that Built the Bible" by Dr. Robert R. Cargill: "The Bible is a chronicle of the events of a people - a chronicle that has been augmented and edited, redacted, reshaped, and rewritten over the years for the purpose of presenting an account of the history of a people who believed God had broken into history and was guiding them through their time on Earth." - Robert R. Cargill, Ph.D., The Cities that Built the Bible

Passage from "The Cities that Built the Bible" by Dr. Robert R. Cargill: "The Bible is a product of those ancient individuals who dared to struggle with God and who survived to write down their reflections.

Cargill, Ph.D., The Cities that Built the Bible
