Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)
From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:40
1:30 The second half of the verse is hard to interpret since the logical subject is unclear. The question is who is going to tell the truth and retell it. Judging from other instances of the Japanese verb in question, I think it would be fair to assume that it is God who will repeatedly tell the truth. The verse could then be interpreted to mean that, having seen that the cleaning has been thoroughly done, God will tell the truth in a thorough manner. In my view, seeing the verse in this way would best facilitate our understanding.
