Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning
Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning offers a metaphysical reading of Scripture, treating biblical narratives not merely as historical or doctrinal records but as symbolic disclosures of universal spiritual law. Troward moves through Genesis, the Gospels, and key theological themes with a prose style at once lucid, analytical, and devotional. Situated within the late Victorian and Edwardian context of liberal theology, comparative religion, and New Thought philosophy, the book seeks to reconcile biblical revelation with reason, psychology, and the creative power of mind. Thomas Troward, a British colonial judge in India and later a major influence on New Thought, brought to religious writing a jurist's precision and a mystic's speculative range. His legal training encouraged systematic argument, while his exposure to Eastern thought and his interest in mental science shaped his conviction that Scripture encodes principles of spiritual causation. This background helps explain his attempt to uncover an ordered, intelligible meaning beneath biblical mystery. Readers interested in esoteric Christianity, metaphysical interpretation, or the intellectual roots of New Thought will find this volume rewarding. It is especially recommended to those who wish to read the Bible as a text of inward transformation rather than as dogma alone.

Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning
"Jesus says that if a man keeps his saying, he shall never see death (John 8:51); in the Book of Job we are told that if a man has with him "a messenger, an interpreter", he shall be delivered from going down to the pit, and shall return to the days of his youth (Job 33:23-25); the Psalms speak of our renewing our youth (Psalm 103:5); and yet again we are told in Job that by acquainting ourselves with God we shall be at peace, we shall lay up gold as dust and have plenty of silver, we shall decree a thing and it shall be established unto us (Job 22:21-28). "Now, what I propose is that we shall reread the Bible on the supposition that Jesus and these other speakers really meant what they said. Of course, from the standpoint of the traditional interpretation this is a startling proposition. The traditional explanation assumes that it is impossible for these things to be literally true, and therefore it seeks some other meaning in the words, and so gives them a "spiritual" interpretation."Thomas Troward was Her Majesty's Assistant Commissioner and later Divisional Judge of the North Indian Punjab from 1869 until his retirement in 1896. It is this later period for which he is best remembered and most celebrated; in it he was at last able to devote himself to his great interest in metaphysical and esoteric studies. Troward is one of the founding fathers of Mental Science and a leading proponent of the 'New Thought' movement, a forerunner of what is now known as 'New Age' thinking.
