PAGE TEN by Rev. Charles H. Gilbert My daughter, Catherine, and I are fond of looking things up in the dictionary. Last night from the front porch where she was reading Pickwick Papers by the light through my study window, with articulating motions, she asked me to look up the word “pettitotoes.”’ It turned out to be a word signifying pigs’ feet, es- pecially the toes, prepared for edibility! Quite enlightening, but not especially a useful word for our day by day vocabu- laries. Meanwhile I had been search- ing for the word (take another line for this!) disestablishment- arianism. This word had special meaning in England to describe those people who wanted to depart the ‘‘establishment’s” principle of separation of Church and State. While the limited meaning of the word is not so much in public news in our time there are plenty of movements to disrupt certain situations which are labeled ‘‘the establish- ment.’’ It sometimes means the Church, especially the stronger denominations which have a more or less settled status in so- ciety which irks the rebellious strata among our people. It may mean a settled school system, or a university, or a racial entity with its power and privi- lege: Or it may mean a govern- mental practice of long dura- tion. So there have arisen groups, often mobs, with or without or- ganization but which are recog- nized as against some of these establishments. Sometimes the only apparent reason seems to be simply because ‘‘it” is an es- tablishment, something which its opponents consider having been too long settled in its ways and ought to be ‘disestablish- ed.” It is too long a word to have printed in large letters on a banner. : How would such a banner be handled which had printed on it: 'WE ARE FOR DISESTAB- LISHMENTARIANISM! Bottles, rocks, marches, door- breaking ,—anything will do to break up “the establishment.” These groups, whether old or young, students or workers, men -or women, doubtless have some real grievous complaints. There do need to be changes in the established way of doing things, there too long have been overlooked the needs and rights of minority sections of our people. But because within every‘‘es tablishment’’ there are so many values which have taken time to accumulate and organize, so My Typewriter Talks ‘trembling, many books and records that money cannot replace, and which sooner or later will be needed and wanted by almost any citizen we think there is a growing antagonism to all this attempt to destroy the best with the worst, a growing type of ic- onoclastic activity which leaves the world poorer for the losses involved, we think there should be, and in fact there is, a trend toward “ANTIDISESTAB- LISHMENTARIANISM.” Let's not anybody try to print that on a banner! But sometimes we need to protest against the protestors. Yet we need to beware lest we condone some of the qualities of ‘‘the establishment’’ which need altering in favor of greater humanitarianism, broader sympathies, and more consid- eration for minority rights. GREEK Now I hope you will be patient with me while I air a feeling which I have developed for cer- tain wordings of the Greek in the New Testament. For in- stance, in all the translations I have seen so far I read as in Matthew 14:27 where the dis- ciples were scared cold by what they thought was a ghost walk- ing on the water. toward their boat. The voice that came to them full of assurance is given in English as “It is I.”” IT would not for the world lift my judge- ment above any translator’s to say that such is not the way the words should be translated. All I say is, that since I have been having so much fun delving into the Greek New Testament I get a spiritual pleasure from taking the two words (not three) in the Greek and hearing Him say merely: “I AM!” For I find a linkage (whether such linkage is inted- ed or not) between this and Exodus 3:14 where the voice of assurance and courage came to ‘hesitant Moses standing there beside the burning bush in his bare feet wondering Who this was speak- ing to him, and saying: “I AM!” Especially do I take this in its shortest form when I realize by so many references how closely Jesus linked himself with the Voice Moses heard. In John 8:28 in the New English Bible: Jesus said to them, ‘When you have lifted up the Son of Man you will know that I an what I am.” Sounds as if the Burning Bush were not far away from his mind! So I find it not hard to vend: “I AM, do not be afraid.” Moses got over his fear of Pharaoh when he remembered that the “I AM” had spoken to him.
