The Genesis of Good and Evil

More about the book

Exploring the complexities of the Garden of Eden narrative, this book delves into the evolution of the concept of "the Fall" within Jewish tradition prior to Christianity. It challenges conventional interpretations by highlighting the absence of explicit references to sin in Genesis 3, suggesting that the text addresses the human condition rather than punishment. Through a detailed analysis of Genesis chapters 3, 4, and 6, the author argues that these passages ultimately support the doctrine of original sin, prompting readers to reflect on their own interpretations and questions.
