The Garden Story Part 2

The Eden story (Genesis 2–3) is interpreted in many ways. In these two lectures, we first examine when and how the standard interpretation came into existence and why it is so important. We will then examine the light that new research has on the story and consider how it might affect the story’s interpretation, as well as look at how the narrative represents the characters of God, Adam, the Serpent and Eve. This was part of the Telling Biblical Tales DVD.
