Christ as Reading Teacher

In a brief but helpful lecture on approaches to teaching the great books, Dr. Bruce Foltz says that "all authentic learning must be, however tacitly and unknowingly, a seeking of the Creator within the creation, of the Logos within the logoi, of the Truth within the true."  The Logos, Christ himself, shows his contemporaries how to read the Old Testament scriptures.  Explicitly showing his disciples on the road to Emmaus.  When one looks at the writings of the early church, we find them reading secular works with an eye to the Logos. Finding Christ, however obscured, in the writings of Heraclitus, Plato, Homer and Virgil.
