That’s very beautiful. I especially love the sheep and the goats being brought back together.

What's amazing is that it was written way back in the SEVENTH century B.C., the time of Nebuchadnezzar -- and she wrote in a very obscure dialect of Greek, Aeolic.

Yet the sheep and the goats . . . and the Star . . .

I think it's as C.S. Lewis said - all through history God was breathing hints and inklings to those who were paying attention. Even the pagans were given a share in His grace.
