Summary

The inspiration of Ernest Holmes has reached hundreds of thousands of readers through his classic works, many of which are just now becoming available in paperback. Originally published in 1929 as The Bible in Light of Religious Science, this exegesis on the hidden lessons of some of Scripture's best-known verses has been largely unavailable-and even unknown-since the 1940s. Indeed, this edition comes as a brand-new work to the many readers of Ernest Holmes. It is fully reset and redesigned, published for the first time with an index, and includes a new preface to frame the book for the contemporary reader.

Author Biography

The founder of the worldwide Science of Mind movement, Ernest Holmes (1887-1960) was a uniquely gifted scholar with a vast command of the world's spiritual philosophies. The author of the landmark classic The Science of Mind, Holmes wrote many popular and inspirational books, including This Thing Called You, The Art of Life, Creative Mind and Success, and 365 Science of Mind.
