Provérbios 22

Provérbios 22:20

As human beings consist of body, soul and spirit, so also Scripture consists of the body of letters, by which the ignorant man is benefited; and that is called "manual instruction." Second, it consists of soul, that is, a higher meaning, which the one who is higher in learning understands. It also consists of spirit, that is, a more sublime and spiritual contemplation which those who are perfect understand and speak. — COMMENTARY ON THE PROVERBS OF SOLOMON, FRAGMENT 22:20
