More concerning John's Story 6

Looking at John's Story 6 again...

Yesterday we observed how two statements within one section related to each other. Today we'll observe how the story statment of this Reflection section reflects on the story statement of the Story section. The wisdom statement of this Reflection section reflects on the wisdom statement of the Story section as well.

In the story statement of the Reflection section, John's testimony that he is not the Messiah, but the one sent to prepare his way reflects on the story statement of the Story section where John's disciples and a Jew are discussing with John about Jesus who is not only baptizing but all are going to him.

If you take a look at the wisdom statement of the Reflection section, you'll see that it reflects on the wisdom statement of the Story section. (refer to John's Story 6 from two days ago.)
