thanks for the great quote, Maerbenn
correction than - 'naked I was sent' with the meaning of the naked body on the top of the mountain, not naked spirit (though in my previous I was thinking of spirit
inside the body
feeling naked as being for the first time into the enormous world). May readiness to receive white robes be interpreted somehow not bodily only?
The rest of my argument stands as it was - the body is the same as was slain, and Gandalf is resurrected, not reincarnated.
