But none of the rest of the quote reflects a Middle English feel/fabric or context.

As for Shakespeare, I expect that sort of thing with the spelling irregularities but the general irregularity itself is consistent throughout an entire play or piece. It feels strange when reading this entire Bible passage.

That said, the overall meaning is very nice; too bad all the blame-Christians refuse to accept that view rather than the smiting-God (holier-than-thou) view that early Christianity rejected.

I HATE it when I hit the 'post' button without realizing I've screwed up. 'Broke' is already past tense. It was just a vowel substitution.

I don't know enough about the ins and outs of Christianity to say much, except to note that a lot of people who take that title do things and have done things that I don't think Christ would approve of or that their God would have had in mind for them to. I have also seen it lived humbly, quietly, kindly, and well. Almost properly Buddhist.
