Summarizing the Talks

In my last three Chapters, I have examined in detail, verse by verse, what I consider to be the two talks given by Jesus to His disciples after supper on Maundy Thursday as well as the prayer to His Father which they also heard.

At the end of each text, I have provided a rewording of the King James Version based on my understanding of its meaning resulting from my detailed textual analysis.

I want in this Chapter to provide for each of these three texts three summaries each, each one shorter than the other. To produce these, I have first rewritten each of the three texts in the form of a series of short statements of basically one idea each. These sets of statements follow the same order as the original text. I have transformed Jesus' Last Talk at Table, into a set of fifty-two such statements1, Jesus' Talk on the Walk, much longer, into a set of seventy-one such statements 2 while Jesus' Prayer by the Cedron, into a set of fifty-six3.

I will attempt to make the first summary as close to complete as possible, while eliminating all repetitions. I will provide in the next summary what I consider the most important points in the discourse. The third summary will contain unfortunately only the most crucial points. The first will be the only one where I will use subheadings. I will not comment on any of these summaries, letting them speak for themselves.

What I have done to produce these summaries is to cut the number of statements by half from the first set of statements to the first summary, and again from one summary to the next, which is an arbitrary way of shortening the lists forming each summary.

Each statement will be in a color identifying the summary to which it belongs. The first summary statements are in NAVY, the second summary statements are in BLUE while the third summary statements are in MAROON. This will permit an easy reading of the three texts first summaries one after the other by keeping to the text in NAVY, the three second summaries, by keeping to the text in BLUE and finally the three texts third summaries by keeping to the text in MAROON.
