its incredible how words have changed but ideas stay the same through history. look at English words reign and rain, you talk about realm of the skies which is also reign of the skies, like rain from the sky , teaching

So true! I prefer the word "reign" to "realm" but the "rain" confuses it, and I am confused enough. Reminded of a Lenard Cohen lyric, "If it be Your will, and there is a choice, let Your mercy spill on these burning hearts in hell and make us well. If it be Your will."

Not so much confusing people as entertaining and amusing them and making them think.
