Genesis Marks the Spot

Genesis 1:28 - Is human rule meant only for animals and not for other humans?  What is biblical government?  Tying in some modern social psychology with Jonathan Haidt's moral foundation theory, I offer an encouragement to political engagement in a self-giving way rather than engaging in one-up-manship.

What if we've all got an overdeveloped sense of vengeance?  How are guilt and justice portrayed in the Bible, especially in relation to God's character?  What does shame have to do with (legal) guilt?  How do these concepts develop?  And...why does Genesis 1-11 seem so Mesopotamian??

What's up with shame in Genesis 2 but not 3, and why were Adam and Eve naked in the garden?  What were the garments of skin (and what's with these garments of glory)?

Part 2 of the third Parable of Enoch.  In this parable, we find some interesting bits about Noah and what's behind the flood, and ruminate on salvation, critical thinking, dangerous books, and what's upcoming on the podcast.  Bit of a rambly episode at the end, but just opening the door a bit to consider some thoughts and importance of where we place our foundations.

Part 1 of the third Parable of Enoch.  (Guys, I tried to fit it into one episode, but the more the merrier, right??)  In this parable, we find some interesting bits about Noah and start to see what's behind the flood, and end up ruminating about what this text tells us about salvation--especially between OT and NT.  (To be continued next week!)

Is 1 Enoch a Christian writing?  Some believe so because of its close description of the Son of Man and other messianic imagery, particularly in the Parables of Enoch.  An overview of the second part of 1 Enoch, the Parables of Enoch, with a reading of the first parable.
