मुझे पाँचों पवित्र ग्रंथों (पेंटाट्यूक) में इतिहास नज़र आता है। मुझे उसमें परम सत्य के दर्शन होते हैं। मुझे उसमें दैवीय प्रेरणा के साथ-साथ इंसानी पवित्रता भी दिखाई देती है। आप इसका कोई भी पन्ना खोल लीजिए, आपको तुरंत एहसास होगा कि आप किसी ऐसी चीज़ के सामने हैं जो दुनिया में और कहीं नहीं पाई जाती।

I see history in Pentateuch. I see revealed truth in it. I see in it human holiness as much as divine inspiration. Wherever you open it, any page, you know that you are in the presence of something that exists nowhere else.

मैककॉर्मिक थियोलॉजिकल सेमिनरी में मुझे हिब्रू भाषा पढ़नी पड़ी थी, और तभी मैंने भविष्यवाणियों की कविताएँ पढ़नी शुरू कीं। देखते ही देखते वह मेरी ज़िंदगी का मक़सद बन गया।

मैं विश्वविद्यालय में एक शिक्षक रहा हूँ, और मैंने हमेशा महसूस किया कि मेरी ज़िम्मेदारी बनती है कि मैं बाइबल को इस रूप में न देखूँ कि मैं लोगों का धर्म परिवर्तन कराना चाहता हूँ या उन्हें अपने धार्मिक अनुभवों में शामिल करना चाहता हूँ, बल्कि इसे एक अकादमिक और वैज्ञानिक विषय के रूप में देखूँ।

I've been on a faculty in a university, and I felt it was incumbent on me to deal with the Bible not as something I was attempting to convert people to, or to have them enter into my religious experience, but rather as an academic and scientific discipline.
