The Keys to Rediscovering the Ancient Wisdom Embedded in the Garden in Eden.


The key to discovering the ancient wisdom embedded in the words of the Hebrew Bible is identifying differences between stories – especially differences that are undeniable and obvious.

● The first story is about an unnamed god, while the second story is about a god named Yahweh.

● The first story is about the creation of the “heaven and earth”, while second is about the making of the “earth and heaven.”

● The first story is about the creation of the entire cosmos; while second about planting a Garden in a place called Eden.

● In the first story the problem is too much water, while in the second story the problem is not enough water.

Why did they lay their coats at Saul's feet?

The witnesses, laying their coats at the feet of Saul, were the men that would cast the first stones at Stephen in Acts 7. Why did they all lay their coats at Saul’s feet? The Talmud contains a very interesting account of the act of stoning that may provide the answer. “When the trial was over, they take him [the condemned person] out to be stoned. The place of stoning was at a distance from the court, as it is said, ‘Take out the one who has cursed.’ [i] A man stands at the entrance of the court; in his hand is a signaling flag [Hebrew   sudarin = sudar , ‘scarf, sweater’]. A horseman was stationed far away but within sight of him. If one [of the judges] says, ‘I have something [more] to say in his favor,’ he [the signaler] waves the   sudarin , and the horseman runs and stops them [from stoning him]. Even if [the condemned person] himself says, ‘I have something to say in my favor,’ they bring him back, even four of five times, only provided that there is some substance to...

The Moment the Humans Created Shame in the Garden in Eden

For readers of most English translations, this is a story about two naked people who didn’t know they were naked until they ate the forbidden fruit . The reason God told them to not eat that fruit was because he didn’t want them to know they were naked or he was testing their obedience to him .

The Parable of the Lost Coin

The Parable of the Lost Coin is found in Luke 15.8-10. Or what woman, having ten drachmas, if she would lose one drachma, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek resolutely until she finds? Our previous study was about a man that owned 100 sheep, not a poor shepherd. This parable is about a woman who has ten drachmas (silver coins) – she is by no means a marginal, outcast, or poor woman . She’s not only relatively well-off, she has a house. Luke 15 confirms what we know from other sources: women in Judea have access to their own funds – they are hardly the poorest of the poor . All four Gospels , in various ways, describe interactions Yeshua, the Jewish Jesus , had with women. So, a parable about a woman would have appealed to his female followers.
