The Holy Bible Cryptogram

Solving Approach

At this length, the average word here runs about 3.4 letters. With plenty of short words in the mix, start by isolating any single-letter or two-letter groups — those are almost always "A," "I," "TO," "OF," or "IS." Expect a harder puzzle like this to mix short and long words unevenly, so don't assume the shortest cipher group is the easiest win — check it against repeated letters elsewhere first.
