Yeah. The application of contextul 'criticism' does one a whale (or "great fish") of a lot of good in this. Leaving the natures of God's Scriptures and His use of writers open to God's determination is good too, eh? I think King David would hope that we say so.

That is, if we also may be so relieved as to know that the purpose of Scripture is generally for revelation, not for mystery, even if "through a glass darkly" compared with being face to face.

I really need to shut up now and work. "And there was much rejoicing."
