"The relationship between Christ and Socrates is denied by those who distinguish absolutely between two Greek words for love, eros and agape. Paul's hymn to love uses the word agape which is best translated as charity; Plato's symposium is concerned with eros which is best translated as desire. Even as sweet-blooded a popular theologian as C.S. Lewis distinguishes between what he calls need-love and gift-love, which in their essence become for him desiring and charity."
The index of the essay "Faith and Multiversity" by George Grant. It appears in the book Technology & Justice by the same author. I am currently down a deep rabbit hole as I write this. Is one of the hallmarks that an ancient Greek play will be a comedy is that it has a wedding?
