REBOL SCOPING / CONTEXT EXPLANATIONS

This post is in response to long running
threads on this mailing list about Rebol
internal operations including scoping
& context, the conversations have over time
progressed to an advanced state. 

However for some of the newer Rebollers 
all this must seem very abstract & confusing 
but obviously of importance to arouse such debate.

so for the attention of Brian Hawley in particular,
how about a full explanation in laymens terms
,ie simple english, just what exactly Rebol
does when the following short script is
loaded / interpreted / executed.

------START OF REBOL CODE -----------------

REBOL []

my-words: [ 'rebol "Blue" ( 7 * 2 ) ]

loop 2 [ foreach word my-words [ print word] foreach word my-words [ probe word ]]

------END OF REBOL CODE ---------------------


Anyone care to elucidate further, Brian ?
