[Dialogue] wedgeblade in Apple ad

[George Holcombe]

Like Pat, I don't know how reliable my memory is.  Ed Hobbs (Edward  
C. Hobbs)  was the N.T. prof. at Perkins and he and Joe were very  
close. I believe he is finally trying to finish his work of passion  
on Mark as a transformation of the Exodus Story as a story of  
salvation history.   My memory of the wedgeblade was that it was a  
teaching image used in the church lecture and came to prominence  
during "The Turn to the World."  I have noticed variations of our  
wedgeblade in other cultures.
