Yes, it is interesting. The point I was trying to make is that there is no "smoking gun" here. It was certainly not the case that a bunch of foolish goy stupidly mistranslated something.

That was your only post on this topic so forgive me if I failed to see your 'point'. I thought you were merely asking a question...no need for derogatory euphemisms either.

Neat, the seaweed should not be "wrapped [around] my head" be must trampled underfoot and "fashoined as sign upon the flesh" as it was for James Joyce in his Beatific Vision (Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man) to show the victory over sin.
