Following a discussion relating to the articles preceding this article the issue of two people having different "revelation" on the same passage in the bible came up.
This reminded me of a Jewish tradition that relates to the "seventy facets of the Torah's jeweled words" a teaching to the effect that inspired words from Yah can have up to seventy different interpretations depending on the context.
It seems to me that there is some truth in this which you might like to pray about.
The essential principle is that words from Yah have a richness of meaning such that they can be interpreted in different ways in different contexts by different people at different times because His words ARE Spirit and life.
May Yah bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you and give you peace.
