Neo: Qu'est ce
qu'il.
Morpheus:
You are the one, Neo. You see you may have spent the last
few years looking for me, but I've spent my entire life looking
for you.

Scene shift to our world: What is the Messiah, the One?
 |
|
Definition:
Messiah from the Hebrew word meaning "anointed
one" - referring to the procedure for inaugurating a Jewish
king. The Messiah will be a Jewish king over Israel, descended
from the house of David. He will be instrumental in bringing
world peace and awareness of God to humanity. |

L'oracle:Tu sais pourquoi
tu es ici ?
Neo: Je pense que oui.
L'oracle: Alors a ton
avis, crois-tu être L'élu?
Neo: J'en sais rien
Does the Messiah know that he is the One?
Let's look at a previous redeemer. Did Moses grow up knowing that
he would redeem the Jewish people?
|
As a baby, Moses is fished out of the Nile and raised in
Pharaoh's palace. He goes out to see the condition of the
Jews, kills an Egyptian and flees for his life. He spends
decades as a fugitive, unable to return to his people, reduced
to shepherding his father-in-law's flock. Hardly an auspicious
beginning.
But then Moses encounters the burning bush. God tells him,
in no uncertain terms, that he is "the One." Why? "Because
you turned aside" - because you turned aside while in Egypt
to see the state of the Jewish People. Because you cared and
chose to see their plight, instead of ignoring them and living
the good life in Pharaoh's palace.
The Messiah is a regular human being, like you and me, who
dedicates his life to reaching greatness. He's not born the
One; he becomes the One as a natural outgrowth of his unique
life mission. Jewish Tradition teaches that in every generation
there is a potential Messiah somewhere on Earth. He doesn't
know it yet…

L'oracle: Mais tu
sais déjà ce que je vais te répondre.
Neo: Je ne suis
pas L'élu.
L'oracle: Désolé
mon petit. Tu en a l'étoffe, mais ru restes dans l'escpectative.
Neo: quoi ?
L'oracle: Dans une
autre vie peut être qui sait

It's not a matter of being convinced. In the end, Neo chooses to
stop waiting, to stop hesitating, and becomes the One. There's a
Redeemer in our midst. But he has to first earn that title before
attaining it.
Neo: Morpheus. He...he
almost had me convinced. But...
Morpheus: He is The
One. Do you believe it now, Trinity?
Neo: Morpheus. The
L'oracle, she told me I'm...
Morpheus: She told you
exactly what you needed to hear, that's all. Neo, sooner or later
you're going to realize, just as I did, there's a difference between
knowing the path and walking the path.
Got your walking shoes on?
