[What is the actuality2a that fundamentally transforms freedom2a(1a) into bondage2a(1a)?

This ‘something2aemerges from and situates the possibilities inherent in me1a.

The mirror of the world3a or the thought experiment3a brings ‘something2a’ out of the possibilities inherent in me1a.

I may think that something2a enslaves me.

Actually, the relation3a enslaves me.]

Summary of text [comment] page 83

[A nugget of wisdom appears.

The integrity of the individual may be formulated as an if…then statement.

IF the person’s mirror of the world reflects YHWH,

THEN freedom describes the potentials inherent in the person.

The individual becomes responsible and free.

IF the person’s mirror of the world does not reflect YHWH,

THEN bondage describes the potentials inherent in the person.

The individual loses responsibility (words) and becomes a slave (bondage).]
