Isaac on The Bible
← Back to Isaac Profile
“But Thy good word informs my soul How I may climb to heaven.”
“No sciences are better attested than the religion of the Bible.”
“How glad the heathens would have been, That worship idols, wood and stone, If they the book of God had seen.”
“If you suspect that my interest in the Bible is going to inspire me with sudden enthusiasm for Judaism and make me a convert of mountain‐moving fervor and that I shall suddenly grow long earlocks and learn Hebrew and go about denouncing the heathen — you little know the effect of the Bible on me. Properly read, it is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived.”
