Christ sought to remove that which obscured the truth. The veil that sin has cast over the face of nature, He came 19 to draw aside, bringing to view the spiritual glory that all things were created to reflect. His words placed the teachings of nature as well as of the Bible in a new aspect, and made them a new revelation.

Kristus søgte at fjerne det, der skjulte sandheden. Det slør som synden havde kastet over naturen, kom han for at drage til side og bringe den åndelige herlighed for dagen, som alle ting var blevet skabt for at genspejle. Hans ord stillede naturens undervisning såvel som Bibelens i et nyt lys og gjorde den til en ny åbenbaring.
