This is wonderful, thank you! It's the first piece I've read by you but have subscribed to read more of your work 🙏
One point I'd like to make regarding Christ's cry of (seeming) despair on the cross... I don't think Weil's take is correct. He is quoting the opening line of Psalm 22 which goes on to prophesy the crucifiction and, crucially its ultimate purpose in extraordinary detail!

I’d love to know where Weil talks about human rights... if anyone knows please let me know
She also writes about it in the introduction to ‘The Need for Roots’
"Human Personality" is a good essay to start with. PDF readily available online. XO

I was JUST rereading some of your posts and wishing you published something soon... thank you
