G'day Chris, Thanks for writing about "telos". I have heard people say that. As I have responded to David, language is imprecise and so open to interpretation. I think that there is a good case for "telos" in Romans 10 meaning the termination or limit of an act or state. You, and others, think it means goal or purpose. I would probably be in your test run :) Cheers Peter -- Peter Eyland Sydney Australia Web page: http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/~epe ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
