SD 1628 - to live from the Lord

SD 1628
. . . to live from the Lord,
is something which neither a person nor spirit [duly] perceives,
and for this reason he is prone to imagine
that such a life is no life at all,
whereas it is the veriest (truest) life itself,
although one ought neither to make efforts from himself,
nor yet relapse into apathy without attempting anything.
These things are of a more interior nature,
and therefore difficult to believe,
because they are neither understood nor perceived.

I just thought I'd mention that your posting about the sons of Shem prompted me to look up the Aramaic language on the Internet. Wow! Fascinating: it is apparently the ROOT language for all the semitic, phoenecian and even Greek languages, and so if it is true that the Lord spoke this language He would truly have appealed to people from ALL the known world at that time. Nice meaning for Aram, too. Fits the Lord's work absolutely! Most interesting.

Just try Googling Aramaic if interested.
