commentary

</aside>

  1. The Greek philosophy was full of pungent truth 🔍, and Jesus longed to study with the masters on the schools of Greece 🗒️.
  2. And so he left his home in Nazareth and crossed the Carmel hills, and at the port took ship ⛴️, and soon was in the Grecian capital ⭐.
  3. Now, the Athenians had heard 👂of him as a teacher 📖 and philosopher 📜, and they were glad to have him come to them that they might hear his words of truth 📕.
  4. Among the masters of the Greeks was one, Apollo, who was called, Defender of the Oracle, and recognized in many lands as Grecian sage.
  5. Apollo opened up for Jesus all the doors of Grecian lore ✨, and in the Areopgagus he heard the wisest masters speak 🗣️.
  6. But Jesus brought to them a wisdom far greater than theirs; and so he taught ✏️.
  7. Once in the Amphitheater he stood, and when Apollo bade him speak, he said:
  8. “Athenian masters, hear! In ages long ago, men, wise in nature’s laws 🪴, sought out and found the place on which your city stands.”
  9. “Full well you know that there are parts of earth where its great beating heart 🫀 throws heavenward ⬆️ etheric waves that meet the ethers from above ☁️.”
  10. “Where spirit-light and understanding, like the stars of night, shone forth.“
  11. “Of all the parts of earth there is no place more sensitized, more truly spirit-blest, than that where Athens stands.” 🇬🇷
  12. “Yea, all of Greece is blest 🕊️. No other land has been the homeland of such might men of thought 📜 as grace your scrolls of fame.”
  13. “A host of study giants of philosophy 💭, of poetry ✍️, of science 🔬, and of art 🎨, were born upon the soil of Greece, and rocked 🐣 to manhood in your cradle of pure thought. ⬜”
  14. “I come here not to speak of science, of philosophy, or art; of these you 🫵 are the world’s best 👍 masters now.“
  15. “But all your high accomplishments are but stepping stones to worlds beyond the realm of sense; are but illusive shadows flitting on walls of time. 🕰️”
  16. “But I would tell you of a life beyond, within; a real life that cannot pass away.”
  17. “In science and philosophy there is no power strong enough to fit a soul to recognize 💭 itself, or to commune ☎️ with God.”
