New Critique II, p. 52 (1955 edn)

The Scriptures reveal God's act of creation. In their statement of
this basic truth, which transcends all theoretical thought, they do
not primarily appeal to a certain temporal cognitive functions of man,
but to ourselves in the religious root of our existence.
They do not use theoretical scientific concepts, but by means of their
central basic motive they appeal to the heart of man in the language
of naive experience.

This is the only place that is mentioned under 'Scripture' in vol IV.
