Show Transcript

Nate    00:00:06     Get it Jason? Genesis?  Okay, go ahead Jason

Jason    00:00:36    All right. Welcome to the weekly, deep dive podcast on the Add on Education Network, the podcast where we take a look at the weekly, come follow me discussions, and try to add a little insight and unique perspective. I am your host, Jason Lloyd here in the studio with my friend and the show’s producer, Nate Pyfer

Nate    00:00:53     DJ Nate Pyfer

Jason    00:00:56   DJ Nate Pyfer

Nate                      Genesis lover

Jason                     Spinning us up some Genesis, except 

Nate    00:01:00    Get it everybody? Genesis?

Jason    00:01:02    I was kind of hoping it would be like a, a Nate Pyfer cover of Genesis. 

Nate    00:01:06    I didn’t have, I was honestly going to try to do something of that this week, but I have been swamped with work. And so I’m sorry. I wasn’t able to make it happen. 

Jason    00:01:13    No, it’s all good. Uh, in fact, this week there’s so much content. I I’m really excited. We are talking about the flood, Noah, the Ark. What were the people like before the flood? Uh, we’re going to be talking about the weird story of Noah, building a vineyard, getting drunk and some weird voyeurism with his son and his cursing of his grandson. What’s that all about?

Nate                      Ham! Let’s do this.

Jason                     Yeah. And, uh, and then we get a, wrap it up with a discussion about the tower of Babel. So that’s okay. If our focus is going to be on content this week, let’s focus on the content.  

Nate    00:01:51   I have actually put quite a bit more effort than I usually do of trying to help prepare to have some better ideas this week than I have in some of the passes, because I cause the new test or the Old Testament has stoked me too. It’s lit a flame. 

Jason    00:02:04    It’s been fun and we keep hitting these recurring themes. We said it at the beginning of the year when we introduced the Old Testament, the old Testament has more references to atonement than, than any of the other scriptures that, that we’ve been studying. And not only do we see it blatantly as we’ll get into the law of Moses and we’ll see about Redeemer of blood and atonement and how that all plays out. But I hope you guys with, I mean, Nate and I were just talking on the way over here, how much we see this play out. I mean, just a quick recap. When we talk about Adam and Eve and their nakedness being covered, atoned for, and we talk about city of Enoch as, as this idea of restoration of Enoch, making it back into paradise, if you will. And we’re going to see even more atonement themes when we get to the ark today. 

Jason    00:02:59    All right, let’s talk about the people at the time of the flood. And, and here’s some perspective to keep in mind. The real tragedy here was not that the people were destroyed. Everyone dies. The righteous, wicked death is going to happen to all of us. That’s not the tragedy. The tragedy is what they had become before they got destroyed. That’s that’s where it is. So looking at them Genesis gives us a peek, uh, and Joseph’s miss translation has an interesting, subtle change to it. So Genesis chapter six, verse seven, and God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth. And that every imaginatio...
