  Through a Glass Darkly - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Through a Glass Darkly (originally titled Såsom i en spegel) is a 1961 film written and directed by Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman, and produced by Allan Ekelund.
The title alludes to the phrase "Through a glass darkly", used by the Apostle Paul (at [the King James version of] 1 Corinthians 13:12) to describe how we currently view the world, the idea being that at the end of time we shall at last be able to see clearly.
Four family members are vacationing on a remote island, shortly after one of them, Karin (Harriet Andersson), was released from an asylum.

 Through A Glass Darkly   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Some have taken Paul's language of seeing through a "glass darkly" as referring to our lives upon the face of this dark and sinful globe, and that his use of the phrase "face to face" refers to when, in Heaven, we shall see God.
Opposite of seeing through a glass darkly, is seeing "face to face." (v.12) These correspond to the "veiled" speech of Moses, and the "great plainness of speech" and "open face" characteristic of the gospel in II Cor.
The phrase "mouth to mouth" is equated with seeing "face to face," and "dark speeches" equates with "seeing through a glass darkly." Similar usage occurs in Exodus 33:11, where it is said that the Lord spoke unto Moses "face to face" as a man speaks to his friend.

Using the term "glass" for "mirror" is an archaic usage, thus, it would have been natural for the readers at that time to understand that a mirror was being talked about.
The difference being that from afar the glass is not clear and may have the apperance of a mirror however from up close it is transparent.

 Circular - Glass darkly - Groove Unlimited
Glass Darkly is much less ambient (in the drawn-out drone sense) than their previous album, Divergent, and says clearly that Circular is not an ambient group as such anymore, at least not for this album.
Granted, you can play Glass Darkly in the background and experience it's non intrusiveness, but there are so many nice details and unusual sounds that it's also an album for dedicated listening.
Even though it may be a cliché by now, Glass Darkly is one of those "Arctic ambient" albums, which is typical of Norway, in spite of the band members coming from the West Coast rather than Norway's Arctic areas.

 Through a glass, darkly.
The mystery of who experiences as foretaste the gift of certain special benefits through Christ’s death and resurrection in our present age and who does not cannot be explained, and pastorally I have no answer.
It is my hope that through a careful study of theosis which both affirms and critiques, this venerable concept might be appropriated in a way that is attractive to the contemporary North American Evangelical Church and that enriches the way we live out our Christianity.
The process occurs today through the application of divine grace and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit, conforming the redeemed person into the likeness of Christ and transitioning the believer from mortality to immortality so that we are enabled to participate in the bliss and beatific vision of eternal communion with God.

 Sheridan le Fanu:in A Glass Darkly   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The original quote, like most things written in scripture, is a somewhat ambiguous statement; in the generally accepted meaning, however it is taken as a reference to looking through a window pane, in a somewhat cloudy manner seeing only glimpses of that which is spiritual or indeed heavenly as analogy to life on earth.
As Robert Tracy notes in his excellent introduction to the Oxford world’s classics edition of ‘In a Glass Darkly’, Le Fenu was the son of a clergyman and raised in a very religious household and therefore would not have occasion to ‘misquote scripture lightly’.
The ‘glass’ of Le Fanu’s is believed a mirror in which ‘darkly’ viewed we see a darker nature to our own selves.

For a partial seeing out, up, and in, as "through a glass darkly," we may learn something from the American artist Edward Hopper (18821967).
In the lonely impersonal city of steel and glass, Hopper's people gaze with glassy stares, often outlined with artificial electric light, sometimes wistfully peering out a window as if the streaming rays symbolized the possibility of a fresh vision of reality.
If we move on to Paul's familiar phrase about seeing "through a glass darkly," we must remember that the apostle was talking not about a glass window pane, unknown in biblical times, but about a polished metal mirror.
