Description
A lifetime of studying and teaching the Bible, in a restless search for its deeper meaning, eventually lead Edward IL Smith to a reference to Rudolf Steiner. With characteristic intensity and skilled research techniques from careers as a tax lawyer and successful business person, Smith works to bring the insights he discovered in anthroposophy, or spiritual science, to the heart of mainstream Christianity. In The Burning Bush, the first volume of his anthroposophical commentary on the Bible, the author began this immense task.
This book focuses on the Nativity and the amazing events that offer not only hope to all humanity, but a way to understand the significance of the bible as the story of human development from the far distant past into the far distant future.

Person
Edward Reaugh Smith (1932-2020) was an Illinoisan transplanted to Texas at mid-century. He was a husband, father, and grandfather with broad interests in life. A successful lawyer and businessman, amateur musician, and athlete, his lifelong search for the deeper meaning of the Bible--which he taught for over twenty-five years before discovering the writings of Steiner--expressed itself in his many works. Ed passed away in August at his home in Lubbock, Texas.
