Summary: | The article presents a sermon on the problem of meaning in the New Testament, of intelligibility. It cites a section in the Book of Acts which has two tales running in parallel, that of Paul and that of Peter. It compares the Acts with the Book of Revelation, saying that where Acts seems clear enough to one who will work at it a little, Revelation seems opaque. It provides an interpretation of the Gospel of John, stressing the need to share John's experience that no matter where he looks, he sees something significant and beyond proper description. |
