Hans von Dohnanyi (a high court judge and brother in law to Dietrich
Bonhoeffer), on “Good Friday 19 43”
(23 April), writes to Bonhoeffer, “I’m
reading the Bible a good deal now; it is the only book that does not keep
making my thoughts stray. This morning (I read) Matthew 26 – 28, Luke 22 –24,
Psalms 68 and 70. I have never been so struck by the remarkable divergences
between the two evangelists; how much I would like to talk them over with you.”
