@Searcher , let me just say how much I’ve always enjoyed your posts and the insights I’ve gained from them. Moreover, we are frequently on the same page and it is so agreeable to read others who are thinking along the same lines!  For instance, I just visited ninja today after being off for some time, saw and read Koen’s post without realizing there was a split, and what do you think I posted upon?  At least partially, the direction of the airy things from You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. !  Take a look, we came to similar conclusions!

I’m not sure people realize there is a required rigour in interpretive analysis. My mind will jump from one thing to another, making connections and sometimes getting excited. But I always rein it in at the end.  What I’m really looking for is a preponderance of evidence to uphold my hypotheses. I’m okay if I’m wrong in detail. That’s the risk we take. But so far, both your and my theory that much of the ms is about the water of life has never had any valid contradictions. Until that happens, I will continue my analyses using that framework.  I sincerely hope you do too!
