 In reading your quoted passages and commentary, I could but wonder
 whether the technical details Plato writes about god things and
 concepts come from his common knowledge of Greek religion or from
 his own exploratory imagination or a mix.

  Hal, you cover so much, I am forced to ask how you do it. Do you have
  Plato memorized to pull so many quotes from so many places? And while
  at it, what/which of all you've learned has touched you as ....IMPORTANT?
  .....you know of a lot, but I don't know who you are   (perhaps none of
  my business).
 
  Many thanks for the quoted passages and informing commentary....
