b'Glynn points out that\\xa0 there are two walks one can take during Holy Week.\\xa0 \\n"Holy Week is on the one hand a quasi-reenactment of the events that alleged happened around the time of Jesus\\u2019 death in Palestine, 33 CE.\\xa0Christians for centuries have used this time to reflect on the meaning of his life, death, and resurrection and whether there are cosmic theological implications.\\xa0Was this the unique, once-for-all-time, for-every-culture salvation event?\\xa0\\xa0 \\n\\xa0\\nOn the other hand, there is also a long history of Christians using the events of Holy Week as a time to allegorically reflect on their own lives and their community\\u2019s.\\xa0It is in this vein that I speak this morning."\\nText and video links available at http://www.stmatthews.org.nz/nav.php?sid=533&id=1045.'
