This high view of Christ as far superior to the Old Covenant indicates that the author views Christ as not lower than God, but lower for a little while. That “little while” having passed, Christ is supremely elevated. His glory is now evident, and he is no longer lower than the…

The repeated chorus, “Do not weep/for war is kind,” ties the emotional experience and the actual…

Glory, in this regard, can be considered as the opposite of Mary. Whereas Mary abandoned all conception or desires for the future to adopt her present situation, to give space for God to take action, Glory clutches onto daydreams to distance herself from her present situation, giving God no space to take action in her.

light to all and show that God is faithful to give the knowledge of the glory of God. Paul writes to show that there is a discovery of the divine glory and excellence that God and Christ have. Also in Psalms 119:18 when the psalmist asks the Lord to open his eyes, the psalmist is asking to see more the light that God conveys. The product of divine light is that the natural man can become spiritual; the spiritual man sees the glory of God from the Divine Light. The darkness of the world should…

of the emperor. He was sent on his first voyage by Emperor Yongle in July of 1405 and went on 7 more voyages after.
