His name is Leander Keck known as "Lee". He is a professor of New Testament at Yale. Before he left Emory to go there I took his class that was "Christology in the New Testament" in which he presented the "pictures of the New Testament writings taken of Jesus from different angles". He was one of those lecturers that could get away with reading his lectures with face down quite a lot, and yet could end with standing ovations. There are just a few that can get away with that. We were anxious to hear what he had to say.
Such a memory came to mond when I read the words of a much more awaited speaker ...
Let me hear what God the Lord will speak,
for he will speak peace to his people,
to his faithful, to those who turn to him in their hearts.
Psalm 85:8
