like shakespeare?

reading this weeks epistle lectionary reading - from ephesians 3 - i can confidently say that i just struggle to understand paul...

i feel like a kid again in the early years of high school complaining to the teacher that shakespeare just doesn't make sense... its so much bloody work in my mind just to come to grips with the concept... but when i get there i'm all the better for it...

8although I am the very least of all the saints,
this grace was given to me to bring to the Gentiles
the news of the boundless riches of Christ,
9and to make everyone see what is the plan of the mystery
hidden for ages in God who created all things;
10so that through the church the wisdom of God
in its rich variety might now be made known
to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places...
