Thank you so much, I found this very powerful. Writing a dissertation interpreting the Gospel of Mark in poetry, I especially found this resonant for biblical interpretation: 'The past has a say, but not the final say, because how we interpret what's gone on before influences our life and the future.' And so it does, as, with many translations of the canonical text, each speaks to us in a different way. Further as we see with gender/sexuality based hermeneutics, that death of how we interpret the text can be a great thing, as we move away of stigmatizing women and queer people, and others. Time, and we, move on. That being said, death can be incredibly painful, especially if one loses a child. I'm so sorry.

I love the idea of death of certain hermeneutics. You have me thinking now … 🤔
And thank you for your comments about our girl. 💔
