God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The whole extent of hell, the present suffering, the bitter recollection of the past, the hopeless prospect of the future, will never be thoroughly known except by those who go there.
"Fornication" is unequivocally stated to be the only legitimate ground for which a man may put away his wife. The word used here is the more generic term for sexual uncleanness, namely fornication (porneia). This term may be used of all kinds of illicit sexual intercourse and may apply to such on the part of unmarried personas, in whose case the sin would not be in the specific sense of adultery. But though it is the generic word that is used here (cf. also Matt. 19:9), it is not to be supposed that the sense is perplexed thereby. What Jesus sets in the forefront is the sin of illicit sexual intercourse. It is, of course, implied that such on the part of a married woman is not only fornication but also adultery in the specific sense, for the simple reason that it constitutes sexual infidelity to her spouse. And this is the only case in which, according to Christ's unambiguous assertion, a man may dismiss his wife without being involved in the sin which Jesus proceeds to characterize as making his wife to be an adulteress.
Bring whipping cream and unsalted butter to simmer in heavy medium
saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Add 1/2 pound bittersweet chocolate and
stir until melted. Mix in 2 tablespoons Cognac. Let stand at room
temperature until firm enough to mound on spoon, about 3-1/2 hours.
Line cookie sheet with foil. Spoon truffle mixture by rounded tablespoons
onto prepared cookie sheet, spacing apart. Chill until firm, about 1
hour.
Roll 1 truffle between palms of hands into ball. Place on same sheet.
Repeat with remaining truffles; refrigerate. Melt 3/4 pound chocolate in
top of double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently until
smooth. Remove from over water. Grasp 1 truffle between thumb and index
finger. Dip into chocolate, coating completely. Shake gently to remove
excess chocolate. Place on same sheet. Repeat dipping with remaining
truffles. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Remove truffles from
foil. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Refrigerate in airtight container.)
Serve cold.
