<DIV><FONT size=2>Greetings:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>hO ECWN WTA AKOUETW (Mt. 11:15).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I've always thought this meant something like:&nbsp; "Let those who have the spiritual capacity to understand use that capacity to grasp the significance of what is being said."&nbsp;&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>However, it seems to me that some&nbsp;versions (e.g., Phillips, CEV, TEV)&nbsp;make it sound &nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>more like:&nbsp; "If you have ears on your head, use them!"&nbsp; Where does the actual meaning lie;&nbsp;somewhere&nbsp;between these two extremes?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Many thanks.</FONT></DIV>
