Another wonderful section this week.
A few thoughts:
- Much like Seth, the Raven could use more/better PR. On the other hand, the animals that creep are getting tons of screen time.
- Holding the child responsible for the sins of the parents. A simple idea with a sad legacy.
- The Flood may have been 40 days and nights, but it took months for the waters to recede. Repair can take longer than destruction. On my mind at this particular moment in US history.
- There’s something lovely about the idea that the rainbow isn’t there just as a covenant but also to remind God. God the Mighty. God the Just. God the Sometimes Forgetful but Also Self-Aware.
If you’d like to join in… this is the place for comments and commentary on Noaḥ aka Gen 6.9 – 11.32…
