Does this podcast have a hidden meaning? Probably not. But plenty of history's great writings have hidden meanings (well, maybe they do). This week, Rhys and Colin discuss esoteric writing, where the author's real meaning is veiled, and apparent only to a small inner group with the right knowledge (often to prevent themselves getting killed). Springing off of Leo Strauss' Persecution and the Art of Writing they talk about the benefits and dangers of esotericisim in philosophy and literature, and then wonder whether Scripture is esoteric in some way.
