Episode description

In this episode, I give some big picture thoughts on what makes Genesis such a great book along with some tips for reading.

Genesis is the ultimate origin story. Every major group of the Bible is mentioned in the book.

How is Genesis 1-11 and 12-50 connected? These feel like two very different types of stories. How are stories of a cosmic scale connected to quaint family dramas?

What makes Genesis 12-50 engaging? There are themes that connect all of these family stories that help us in interpretation.
