thanks Luvin I appreciate it, as, I'm always called "stupid and slow" by friends LOL. again I want to apologize---or not apologize, but acknowledge how my posts came across last night. I was already familiar with kaballistic terminology so it was kinda personally eye opening when I wrote my chapter paraphrase, whereas it looked REALLY CONFUSING & even RABBINICAL to others. sometimes I go way deep into word-meaning and stuff, as i'm really into etymology and Judaism's always been an interest to me since I was young. i remember one guy years ago on the Shack wrote an incredible agricultural-based translation of Scripture, and I just ate it up. Just know everyone that I wasn't trying to come off as some big-shot intellectual pharisee. But Char was right in that I should cease to focus on words and instead focus on the freeing life around and within me. Christ isn't complicated a single bit. :)
