hi molearner,
Personally I think, not only is the five colonades in these passages potentially deeper meaning for us, it was originally meant to have meaning to the specific group of people who were there and we get it kinda secondhand through the book... it is kinda like, us seeing signs, they saw them too... in my mind that all comes down to whether you want to agree with society at large that such is meaningless coincidence, or step out and 'arbitrarily' have some faith that you are seeing something 'real'...
good call on the grace thing there is probably a reason it is aligned with five as well... god seems to always have reasons for those of us who require them lol! Keeps us busy though
