In this discussion of Jonah we look at:

Why you don’t know the story of Jonah
How the “big issues” of Jonah are non-issues when the story is really understood
Since Jonah is an excellent story … it must be read as a story
One central question in the book is “What is God like?”

[#60] Genesis 4 Overview – Sin and Civilization

By Jeremy Myers

4 Comments

This episode of the One Verse Podcast provides a short summary of Genesis 4. This helps you get up to speed in this Podcast if you have missed most of the studies of Genesis 4. There are similar summary episodes for Genesis 1, 2, and 3 as well.

Of course, in today’s episode, we don’t look only at Genesis 4, but also look at the flood account in Genesis 6–8, and a verse or two out of Genesis 50. Doing so shows us what Genesis is all about. This is important, since Genesis is the introduction to the Bible.

If you want to understand Genesis and the Bible as a whole, make sure you listen to today’s One Verse Podcast.

In this discussion of Genesis 4 we look at:

A summary of how sin and scapegoating leads to civilization
A look ahead to Genesis 6–11 and the rest of Scripture
How the book of Genesis ends the way it begins, showing us the overall message of the book of Genesis
The alternative to violence which God reveals in Genesis, Scripture, and ultimately, in Jesus Christ

[#59] Genesis 4:16-26 – How Civilization is Founded on Sin, Death, and Religion

By Jeremy Myers

1 Comment

What event is at the foundation of all human society and civilization? We see what the answer is as we look at Genesis 4:16-26.

It is important to understand what forms the foundation of society and civilization because doing so helps us understand our own lives, and also what is going on all around us all the time in current events and culture.

The Text of Genesis 4:16-26

Then Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son—Enoch. To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael, and Mehujael begot Methushael, and Methushael begot Lamech.

Then Lamech took for himself two wives: the name of one was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah. And Adah bore Jabal. He was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. His brother’s name was Jubal. He was the father of all those who play the harp and flute. And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.

Then Lamech said to his wives:
“Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;
Wives of Lamech, listen to my speech!
For I have killed a man for wounding me,
Even a young man for hurting me.
If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold,
Then Lamech seventy-sevenfold.”

And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth, “For God has appointed another seed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain killed.” And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the Lord.

In this discussion of Genesis 4:16-26 we look at:

What Genesis 4 reveals about the human problem of sin
How rivalry and scapegoating form the foundation of human civilization and culture
How rivalry and violence escalate out of control
The fact that God is the ultimate scapegoat for human violence
The origin of religion

[#58] Genesis 4:13-15 – Three Ways out of Violence

By Jeremy Myers

2 Comments

There is lots of turmoil in the United States right now because of the election results. The increasing turmoil makes me nervous because history, theology, and psychology show that there are typically only three ways out of such turmoil, and I am not yet sure which way our country will go.

In this episode, I briefly discuss these three ways out of violence and turmoil, and explain from Genesis 4:13-15 which of these three approaches humans usually choose.

The Text of Genesis 4:13-15

And Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment is greater than I can bear! Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall be hidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that anyone who finds me will kill me.”

And the Lord said to him, “Therefore, whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.” And the Lord set a mark on Cain, lest anyone finding him should kill him.

In this discussion of Genesis 4:13-15 we look at:

The three main ways humans deal with rivalry and violence
The way that Adam, Eve, and Cain chose
Why Cain in not whining about his punishment in Genesis 4:13
Why Cain blames God in Genesis 4:13-14
Why God takes the blame and protects Cain
How god tries to stop the cycle of violence
