(Bonus) Polemic: Reading Genesis 1 - 11 - Day 3 (Fall)
from Journey through the Epistles with Daniel Babalola · host Daniel Babalola
In this episode, we explore Genesis 3 and 4 as part of the broader polemical message of Genesis 1–11. We look at how the fall, the serpent, Cain, Lamech, and the rise of civilization are presented in contrast to ancient Near Eastern ideas about wisdom, life, power, and human progress. Genesis shows that humanity’s true problem is not simply mortality, but rebellion against God, and it reveals how sin spreads from personal disobedience into family, culture, and society.
