I read this 2 years ago I guess now. And I read it again. Your grandfather's memory is for a blessing.

Great post. And loved the link to the chiastic case for Leviticus.

I recently received an email from an adult student about the passing of her grandfather. She was overwhelmed with grief . In her remote village in India he was regarded as a sage, gifted with wisdom about many things. He was in his 90s.

It seemed that his physical and mental horizons never exceeded the village perimeter and his life for 80 years was spent labouring in the fields from dawn to dusk.

What would they have said to each other had they been introduced? Paul
