Chapter 29 kind of consfused me and if anyone has a good answer please comment! Everything seemed at peace with Woland sitting in a lawn chair looking to the horizon and then here comes good ole Matthu Levi. After snide remarks Levi asks Woland to reward the Master with peace and even jabs at him saying, " Is that so diffcult for you spirit of evil?" This paradoxical as why would the "Devil" of this novel have the power to grant peace something he most certainly did not give to any of the characters. Then Woland counters back by saying " And why don't you take him with you, into the light?", then Levi states that the Master has onl earned peace. So my second question is what is the difference between light and peace? Assuming that the light is heaven or a paradise with Yeshua, isn't peace associated with this? There shouldn't be a seperation of the two but I would love to know Bulgakov's take on this.
I commented on Nathan's post.
