So question: When you think of "the best of something" what do you think of? What makes it "the best". This was prompted by the term, "best of books" but I also thought of many other bests while trying to answer this question for myself; best friend, best song, best man, best place, best day. I came up with the following criteria:
1: High quality- Something that stands out amongst others of its kind in terms of accomplishing its function.
2: Stirring/Inspiring- something that resonates with our soul and makes us think, feel, or act in a way that is improved from how we were before we came across it.
3: Support-something that offers us support and encourgment. A feeling of warmth or of being at home.
Can you think of any other criteria for the "best" of something? What do you think the "best of books" means when referred to in addition to the scriptures ( or in other words they are books other than the scriptures).
