-----------------------------------------------------
There was the young man her son, who now lay with his head on a horse’s collar, beside his bit of a fire, the son had thrown off the lid. He had sprung out, without unpleasantness, he was what you would call a good lad, good to his mother and all that, but somehow a separate being. Ah, she had said, he will be a teacher, or a preacher, he will teach the words of the poets and God. With her respect for these, she suspected, in all twilight and good faith, that they might be interpreted. But to the son, who had read the play of Hamlet in his mother’s Shakespeare, and【of the Old Testament those passages in which men emerged from words】, reading by day to the buzz of fly or at night while puddle cracked, there seemed no question of interpretation. Anyway, not yet.
【He was no interpreter.】He shifted beside his fire at the suggestion that he might have been. He was nothing much. He was a man. So far he had succeeded in filling his belly. So far, mystery was not his personal concern, doubts were still faint echoes.

"men emerged from words" means that the text was vivid enough to convey that the characters were real people.
I hope that helps.
