So much to think about here. Thank you, Aaron. Speech as symbol and the locus of encounter is fascinating to ponder, not only from God's side, but our side as well. God encounters us in our speech, and yet is not limited to it. The Spirit meets us in our spirits where the depths of what you and your wife experienced produce only groanings (Rom 8:26). And again his Spirit meets and interprets us when ecstasy renders us speechless (2 Cor 12:4). And all this leads me to think about the eschatological trajectory of speech in the city of our inheritance from both sides, God to us . . . and us to God.
