"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," is not only in the Hebrew Bible, but in the English - it was the Old Testament law of retribution, and was quoted and cast off by Jesus in the New Testament when He gave the intsruction to Christians to "turn the other cheek." "Death has lost its sting" is also a direct quote from the Bible, I think from the book of Isiah, though I'm not sure. I'm also not sure what Lun's intention was when he put those in...

Martin Luther was a stout Christian, who saw through Tetzel's deciet, and posted his list of 95 wrongs he saw within the Church.
I know i am rambling but the whole point was that when yo anagram the name Luther, you can get Rhue + TL.
It probably has no significance, but The Way is gonna be on my mind until i read "The Wheel of Time." So in the mean time, i guess any dots i happen to akwardly connect seem greatly significant.
