Is rhythmic rest the same as metered rest?
Is rhythmic rest the same as metered rest?
The topic of "rhythms of rest" naturally takes us back to the Sabbath, which is something we've explored before (s5ep9, s4ep11, s3ep12, s3ep6). This time we explore a new question about the difference between "rhythmic" and "metered". The book of Proverbs doesn't mention Sabbath at all, but in chapter 8:22-36 there is a fascinating account of wisdom which somewhat subverts the creation narrative of Genesis 1 and describes wisdom predating and underpinning all of creation (including Sabbath). This is called "a delight".
