Hello Cheryl

Thank you for your thoughts on the passage.

I need to roll up my ‘rusty’ greek sleeves and work through your points carefully.

in the meantime… just an interesting ‘aside’ on veils/head coverings. Have you ever noticed that the “cloth that was on Jesus’ head” (a ‘veil’?) was laid distinctly separately from the other burial clothes when he rose from the dead… Jn 20:5-8 Can this be another wonderful illustration of God clearly demonstrating the ‘end’ of any veil coming between us and him? Wonderful stuff i think! What do you think?

regards
Kerryn
