John 8:27
Footnote:
85 | speaking the father. "the father" is in the accusative case meaning it is the direct object of the verb "he was speaking". But, how does the son speak the father? If the father is a word, and the son of the word, and he should speak said word, then the father of himself becomes... But who comes first, father or son? From the standpoint of eternity, cyclical time, there is no first and second in a linear sense because there is no linear sense. They are both first, and they are both last. In the origin the word was and the word was. The words spoken, from the standpoint of cyclical time, mean the son and the father both speak each other into reality—words realized. And where within time they are realized, matters not to the sequential understanding, because they are realized from within the center to the outer "broadway" or "track" of time, wherever they purpose to. "He will turn the heart of the fathers toward the [same] heart of the sons" (Malachi 4:6) |
