The Bible

Despite being a non-theist, I have observed that the Bible, in some parts, has wonderful pieces of Literature which I find beautiful. Some lovely metaphors and symbolism also. For example, in Exodus in the covenant with Moses, the intimacy of 'God' is depicted through: "I carried you on eagle's wings, and brought you to me". I find this absolutely enchanting. I sound rather silly, but there's just someone about it. Okay I know I'm just being weird. Oh well.
