    Just for the record, I respect Ted Kennedy. <G>

    does
    not offer any suggestion at all that is a midrash. Yet, if others on this

    I think George and Bob are arguing that whether or not it is history is not
    the important question. On that I have to agree.

    OTOH, I do think myself that it is a question of interest. But they argue
    that we cannot know the answer with any certainty, and I agree. For me, I
    take it as literal history. But in so doing I do not think that any
    significant part of my spiritual development depends on that answer.
