Notice, you are both studying the same book, yet walking away with two different perspectives. Is the truth changing for each of you? Or are you each experiencing that human filter that the Divine Reality has constantly struggled to penetrate?
Imagine that you and Blume both chose to write books about various Bible topics. Each of your books would be very different, no doubt. But does that mean your source is imperfect? No! It means your abilities to understand are limited and imperfect. Would there be truth in each of your books? Yes! Both of you would share some important truths. Might there be some misunderstandings? Of course! Both of you will have misunderstood various points.
Ah, the limitations of humanity as it tries to express divine realities.
