All this was based on the fact that, during these centuries, human beings were able to assimilate supersensuous knowledge into their imaginative life, not in the way it is to be assimilated now through spiritual science, but in the way they were able to assimilate it at that time, according to their still atavistic states of consciousness. A fundamental fact filled human souls. It was the fundamental fact that is connected with the Mystery of Golgotha. In the way people thought at that time, they knew that the Christ-Being had descended from supermundane heights, had been embodied in the man Jesus of Nazareth, and that something had happened in the Mystery of Golgotha that could not have happened according to ordinary laws discoverable by the knowledge of nature. The concepts and ideas that people had of the Mystery of Golgotha had such ideas and such conceptions that went beyond the earthly sphere.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Fifth Lecture","site_heading":"Initiatory Science and Moral Renewal in Modern Society","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Ein Grundfaktum erfüllte die Menschenseelen. Es war das Grundfaktum, das sich anschließt an das Mysterium von Golgatha. Man wußte auf die damalige Art: Die Christus-Wesenheit ist heruntergekommen aus überirdischen Höhen, ist verkörpert gewesen in dem Menschen Jesus von Nazareth, und mit dem Mysterium von Golgatha hat sich etwas zugetragen, was sich nach gewöhnlichen, von der Naturerkenntnis auffindbaren Gesetzen nicht zutragen kann. - Man hatte in den Begriffen und Vorstellungen, die man sich vom Mysterium von Golgatha machte, solche Ideen, solche Vorstellungen, die hinausgingen über die irdische Sphäre.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":161,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/196/1920-01-17/p021"}],"english":["GA 196/1920-01-17/p021"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":161,"en_words":187,"ratio":1.16,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6302,"original_word_count":6185,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Spiritual and Social Changes in the Development of Humanity","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA196/English/SOL2024/19200117p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
