To Know and to Do

An interesting linguistic turn: from "And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived" to "OMG! I just did the Governor."

No idea why I noticed this now. But it does seem like an interesting change. One might say that it is pregnant with meaning. (Or not.)

From what I understand, throughout Scripture the concept of "knowing" another is based on the concept of relationship to them, not simply knowing about them.

Think about that in relation to John 8:31-21: "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

All that said, yeah ... I can imagine young miss Dupre must have been unsettled by her revelation.
