In the beginning was the Word. Christ is a master at using short, mysterious stories. They change the listener who takes them seriously. My experience with the biblical text is that they're inexhaustible sources of wisdom. If I find something in them that is an obstacle, it's because there's something in me that has yet to be transformed.

I just don't get it. The person that you do not think could ever be virtuous—oh, let me show you. This is the person who is fulfilling the on the prophets: "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you as well." I don't believe in that promise. I'll just be honest; on this point that has not been part of my experience.

This parable I've been trying to understand forever. While we were talking and while we were sitting there, then it hit me. I saw it—maybe one ideology that has supplanted Christianity that has done good for Humanity. This Jew is very frightened of a post-Christian society. He was the God-man, the model, the example of what we ought to become and what we can become.

It's okay; it's safe for you, in all of your doubts and apprehensions, to open up and to let these stories in. He is the temple; he is the Torah; he is the Covenant; he is prophecy fulfilled. If you're doing this and it isn't also the love of wisdom, it's also an attempt at wisdom without love. In both ways, you're going radically wrong.

Power of love—it sounds, say when you say, "60." I don't want to be in a homework. I tell you, we've got our work cut out for us, gentlemen. This is one peculiar time and one peculiar text, and I sure hope we're up to the task. [Music]
