The Deeper Read: S1E2 - Genesis Writers' Room


Listen Later

Welcome back to The Deeper Read, where we don’t just analyze Scripture—we punch up the draft. In this episode, we step into the Genesis writers’ room and take a hard look at the opening chapters of the Bible… which read less like divine dictation and more like a patchwork pilot with dueling showrunners, clashing aesthetics, and a last-minute rewrite that may have tanked Eve’s career.

We’ll break down:

* Why Genesis 1 and 2 feel like two different shows

* Who the serpent really was (producer? plant? misunderstood?)

* And how Eve might’ve been set up to take the fall from day one

This isn’t blasphemy. It’s a development meeting.
