Today my "cloistered brothers" were discussing puzzling scripture passages. We concluded that our understanding grows much like love.
Think about it. As a child, you loved your parents and friends. But once you fall in love, as a young adult, that's another dimension. Then when you have a child, love grows exponentially.
We figure that understanding grows like love. When you first read the Bible you have a rudimentary understanding. As you mature, understanding scripture is different and better since you understand more.
