\\nIt is very easy to allow ourselves to experience wonder on a purely\\nintellectual basis, which misses the point, since wonder is too\\npowerful to be experienced merely through the intellect.
\\n
\\nWe should wonder at some of the amazing things written in the\\nScriptures and at what they should mean to us: if we are created in\\nGod\'s image, how wondrous must that be!
\\n
\\nThere is also a hierarchy of wonders. While we can and should regard\\nthe things God has created and holy artifacts with wonder, these things\\nare only temporary and we must regard the eternal with a greater\\nwonder, and nothing can be as wondrous of the mystery of the\\nincarnation, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

\\nWe are commanded to wonder at these things, in part by the Shema\\nYisrael (Deut 6), which instructs us all to love God with all our\\nheart, soul and might and think on this always and to teach this to our children.'
