Pastors and teachers often recommend the book as a good starting point for new Christians reading the Bible for the first time. But the simple vocabulary and structure belies an extraordinary spiritual depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile there are lessons to be learned from an initial surface reading, diligent seekers will find incredible depths.
