As you grow up, you gradually learn the rules. You bump up against them from time to time, and you don't always find it easy to accept that the people in authority, starting with your parents, get to make the rules and your only job is to follow them. But you learn that there are rewards to be had for following the rules, and generally that seems acceptable. Then you begin to experience something else.
Some people seem to be able to live under a different, more favorable, set of rules.
They have advantages. That's not fair. Even more confusing is that, whatever the rules, they sometimes are suspended for certain lucky people. That's really not fair. I've just given you a glimpse of the Biblical frame of reference.
