It's the difference between a pointer and the contents. 

If Peter had set the variable myText to text 1 of myFrame, then the actual text (sans formatting) would have been in the variable. By using Object Reference, Peter created a pointer to the text so he can then manipulate its contents (or do whatever to it). 

Does that help?
