^{page 236 note 1} Acts xxvii. 35 suggests that St Paul/s action in initiating the meal which was so vital to the safety of all on board, was accompanied by solemn and deliberate ceremony calculated to arouse awe and wonder. One of the purposes of ceremony is to arouse faith through arousing wonder, a fact well illustrated by the closing chapters of the Book of Job. Striking testimony to the interest aroused in the child/s mind of Goethe is given in Poetry and Truth (Eng. trans.).

^{page 237 note 1} Here, too, Goethe has something relevant to say (op. cit. Part i, Bk. v): ‘I shall have more to say on this point when I reach the epoch of that strange style of poetry, by which it was supposed that the myths of the Old and New Testaments were brought closer to our eyes and heart when completely travestied in modern guise, and endued with the vestments of modern life, whether high or low.’

^{page 237 note 2} In what follows I have ventured to add to this list ίσταμαι (stand) (Acts vii. 56) and μετ;αβαίνω (cross over), the last-named being of special importance.

^{page 237 note 3} I am inclined to think that Acts ii. 33 and V. 21 (exalted) should be included in the first division and Phil. ii. 9 (highly exalted) in the second. It is a matter of context.
