250 PRESENT-DAY RATIONALISM 



Observe the three words used for " seeing ". John 

 first " sees " (/SXeTret) — i.e., he saw the cloths lying but 

 they implied nothing peculiar. Peter enters and " be- 

 holds " (decopet)' — i.e., his attention is aroused by some 

 strange fact. Lastly, John comes awa}' having " seen 

 with his mind " (etSe) and understood the meaning of 

 what he saw.
