It is significant that we are described as being slightly lower than the angels rather than being slightly higher than the beasts. Our place and privilege is to be a mediating figure, but to be one who looks up rather than down. When we sever the tie that binds us to God and try to cast off God's rule, we do not rise up to take God's place, as we desire to do, but rather sink to a more bestial level. In fact, we come to think of ourselves as beasts ('the naked ape') or, even worse, as machines.

INSTRUCTIONS

Peel ginger, and cut crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices using a
vegetable slicer, knife, or a mandoline. Combine sugar and 4 cups
water in a small saucepan over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Cook
until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Add ginger slices; simmer
over low heat until translucent, 1 1/2 hours. Lift out with a
strainer-skimmer, and transfer to a wire rack to drain. Pour sugar
onto a plate, and roll each piece in the sugar. Place on a tray lined
with parchment paper. Makes 1/2 cup.
