This week Douglas Wilson talks about What to do with the sons of god marrying the daughters of men in Gen. 6. He then goes on to review Hillbilly Elegy, a book by J. D. Vance. Wrapping it up with a look at the New Testament word “Anaskeuandzo.” Happy plodding!

What to do with the sons of god marrying the daughters of men in Gen. 6

• One of the things that “precipitated” the flood
• In Jude, a certain pronoun links Sodom and Gomorrah to the sons of God
• They were attempting eternal life without God

 

Hillbilly Elegy

• Book by J. D. Vance
• Published in well time right before the presidency of Trump
• Largely autobiographical and memoir
• Vance writes about a dysfunctional family
• Great book on audible - read by Vance
• Helps to understand where someone might be coming from if they look at Trump as a deliverer

 

Harmartiology

• The sin of subversion. (Anaskeuandzo)
• Acts 15:24
