On the other hand, if he had merely read the Scripture Studies with their references, and had not read a page of the Bible, as such, he would be in the light at the end of the two years, because he would have light of the Scriptures."

But if you go and read the Bible, after you have 'understood' the Bible (meaning if you have understood it the way he does), then you will not understand the Bible. And you can only obtain the light of the Scriptures by understanding his interpretation of the Bible.
