Today’s Gospel lesson speaks of glory and love. As always, the Gospel is 180° different from “the way of the world.” Glory and love are abused in speech. In A lice in W onderland, one book I will always have on my shelf (The Annotated Alice is best), Humpty Dumpty tells us that words can be used to mean any way the speaker wants. Glory, for example, can mean a “nice knock- down argument.” Love is often defined according to a speaker’s whim.
