The Two-Way Mirror

As Rohr points out, the Isaiah text is beautiful, lyrical poetry. His comment that some think that this passage, and all of the so-called Second Isaiah, was written by a woman was a new thought to me. There were certainly women poets in those days and there is a different perspective than that of a the bearded prophet. So, why not?

Rohr says that if you substitute mirrored for judgment when the read the Bible you will come much closer to the truth. I reread the John passage and tried that and it didn’t make much sense to me. Anybody have any thoughts on his comment?
