Note 6 — Introductory material
Reading edition
‘Ye shall not see Me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord’ (St. Luke xiii. 35)—that is, ‘ye shall not apprehend Me, and the blessings I come to bring you, until you acknowledge Me as the true Messiah and Saviour of the world.’ To ‘see’ the Lord is, in the New Testament phrase, spiritually to discern and understand Him.
