You can not understand the mystery unless you found the one who holds the key to reveal it. Asked the help of God to show the path and refrain from wrong doings.
Dan 12:9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Dan 12:10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Joh 3:34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.
Pro 1:23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

If you are serious and you really believe in God then you know that you can pray to Him and ask Him to help you to understand. After all He is the author of all these mysteries isn't He? You can also look for bible commentaries. Mathew Henry is a good one. God loves a heart that is willing to learn and will be more than happy to help you. Some things take time to understand and some things might have to be answered by God in person when you meet Him. God Bless you!

1) Learn the original languages (Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic)
2) Read books about the historical and cultural environment of the Bible, and make sure that the books you read are written by reputable scholars - (if you need help, start with the Anchor Bible)
3) Don't insert a supernatural explanation where it is not needed
4) Remember that the Bible was written about the revelation of God to man - but it is not God's revelation to man.
5) Study the writings of the Church Fathers.

Read commentaries by enlightened individual who can lead to deeper understanding.
I recommend "The Second Coming of Christ" by Paramhansa Yogananda published by The Self Realization Fellowship. It is powerful, incredible, a key to unlocking the mysteries. Also his book on the Bhagavad Gita. It took me many decades to find this powerful information. It is transforming.

Only divine intervention allows you to read between the lines and understand the text for what it really says. An unbeliever does not grasp the concept of a lot to the Bible because it is foolishness to him/her. Just pray for the Lords guidance.

Your knowledge of the bible ends where your acceptance of those precepts ends. If you refuse to believe that 2+2=4, then He will make sure that you won't understand that concept. He won't waste time making you understand that which you don't want to believe.

Through systematic Bible study (and daily relationship with the Christian God -- praying for Wisdom as we study the Bible).
Cordially,

You will never understand it all, but only God himself can reveal the hidden things to you..
Deu 29:29 The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
