In this verse the lord tells habakkuk to write his vision and to make it plain enough that those who read will clearly understand the meaning. clarity of meaning is also the goal of academic writing; we must write to assure that those who read understand what happened and the associated meaning. does clarity of meaning require over-simplification of language structure and word choice? why or why not? do we as followers of christ who are also the gatekeepers of knowledge and knowledge development have a spiritual obligation to provide clarity of meaning in the writing of academic works? why or why not? how does your response to the previous question influence your expectations of writing quality in regard to the academic works that you will be producing throughout the doctoral program?
