    Something to keep in mind, Moses (the author of Genesis) was Egyptian. Raised as a prince of Egypt, he'd have been educated in all Egyptian beliefs and taught hieroglyphics, etc. The Hebrew people he was writing to, were also Egyptian and had incorporated many of their beliefs into their own and worshiped their gods. They likely would have understood references to Egyptian ideologies and symbolisms. It would make sense that the connection between Genesis iconography and Egyptian culture would be very strong and would have been a common frame of reference when Moses wrote to the Hebrews to explain complicated topics, theologies and beings.

    It however has to be remembered that according to the Supplementative hypothesis (the most plausible one for Christians), some parts of the Pentateuch were probably added after Moses. There were also originally two Mosaic writings: the general writings written during his life, and the Book of Law, uncompleted by his death, which contained the core of Deuteronomy and some later writings from the time of Joshua.

    The true teaching of the Bible is very rare these days. God has used technology and the internet and KZread to bolster his preaching. Anyone can learn from the comfort of their own home or if they're old and rather disabled like me. It is quite a blessing to be able to learn like this even in old age. Thanks so much.

By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

Thus, culturally appropriate depictions of Jesus are perfectly fine and healthy. Why some feel they need to make a big deal about it and think there must be some kind of magic ju-ju in how his name is pronounced, I have no idea. Sure, his name was pronounced _Yeshua_ by his contemporaries while walked the earth, but the God-breathed scriptures written in Greek have his name as Ιησους, so it just doesn't matter.

I do think that Moses drew from a pre-existing oral tradition about Genesis. But given his education in the Egyptian court he would have (under the influence of the Holy Spirit) been able to put it into a written form for the Hebrews. The invention of writing is only around 5000 years old.

John Walton has been criticized by many a scholar, [Dr. Noel Weeks, Dr. Richard Averbeck, etc.] to name just a few and yet inspiringphilosophy continues to quote him without quoting and referring to those that take to task Walton's interpretations of scripture. Dr. Noel Weeks, once Senior Lecturer of Ancient History at the University of Sydney, critiquing Dr. Walton’s take on Ancient Near Eastern texts: “In summary I am not impressed by the whole approach…. There is no recognition of the difficulty of discerning a uniform mind of the ANE. Individual extra-biblical texts are turned into representations of the whole huge chronological and cultural span. Even more striking are claims that are simply false.”[7] Dr. Richard Averbeck, professor of Old Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, “The point is that material creation was of great concern in the ANE as well as in ancient Israel.”[8]

The reason I think its meat is because in Gen 1:29, the diet God gave humans did not include meat. If both creation stories are consistent, then the forbidden fruit is meat. When Eve (women) feed Adam (men) food that has meat, the resultant is the punishment that 'men' shall rule over 'women'. This dominion of men over women would totally come to an end when women stop feeding their husbands meat (forbidden fruit). That's one way I look at the Adam and Eve allegory.

    El Shaddai means God Almighty in Hebrew It comes from the Akkadian word shaddu which means mountain The Arabic word for mountain is sana Sana means thread of summer in Japanese Sana means eternity in Sanskrit The Ancient Jews believed that the earth(cosmos in Greek) was flat Albert Einstein modeled the cosmos with an infinite flat sheet of space/time A black hole is an infinite pit in space/time An infinite mountain in space/time would be an infinite white hole. Dark Energy and Dark Matter can be explained by finite quantum spinning white holes(tachyons) that exist for a few planck instances. Some scientists believe that the big bang was a white hole If God is an infinite white hole than the Father would be the infinite omnilarity of the white hole, the Son would be the infinite tachyon, and the Holy Spirit would be the infinite tachyonic wave(space) Space does not expand: The cosmos is shrinking while space is constant. This means that the speed of light is shrinking each planck instant in a way that makes it appear constant If the cosmos is shrinking then the density of energy is increasing. This means that all energy will become a black hole because of Schwarzschild radius The beginning of the big bang had 0 entropy which means 100% of the universe was light The universe now has less than 5% light Conclusion the 3 dimensional cosmos is inbetween an infinite infinitely dimensional white hole and an infinite 0 dimensional black hole. Good does not need evil to exist Black Holes are not eternal because of Hawking radiation If you don't abide in Jesus Christ and the Trinity you will be deleted You have the choice to be loved everlastingly or to suffer infinite entropy as your last memory that seems forever because 0 time is eternal to a tachyon Please choose the Perfect Agape of God.

Inertial centripetal convergence (inertia in acceleration) Magnetism is the opposite via force in motion vector ...centrifugal divergence The two are necessitated and they form the hypertrochoid (inverse throw of a sphere/torus is the hyperboloid counterspatial vector...it’s necessitatively so and it’s all a geometrical as above so below illusion of polarity)

Abraham and Babylon were both inheritors of the same traditions. Babylon didn't invent much of their own culture, but they updated the culture they inherited from ancient Sumeria by way of the Akadians. So Israelites culture was monotheistically reinterpreted Mesopotamian culture, imported into cannan for a few generations, but then moved to Egypt for nearly 400 years. So the Torah should be expected to reflect aspects of ancient Mesopotamian culture, Egyptian culture, and novelties defined in terms of backslashes against both. To a less obvious extent there's a lot if cannanite culture there as well, as Michael Heiser points out, in reactions to the Ba'al cycle myths in Cannan. The later writings incorporate aspects of Persian culture as well, then later, in the intertestamental period and the first century: aspects of hellenisation on one hand, and rejection of hellenisatiom on the other hand.

The advent of the documentary hypothesis got going because of the early 19th century ivory tower belief Moses couldn't have written the Torah since he was undoubtedly illiterate. They unanimously believed this because at the time it was popularly assumed the Egyptians didn't have an actual written language because no one had discovered the Rosetta Stone yet. And since there were no ancient examples of Hebrew, the cynics just declared Moses illiterate. Thus they had to rationalize how the stories came together from multiple sources much later, so they looked for clues to discover this and they fixated of the use of different names for God and assumed they come from different authors. With modern scholarship exploding all of the mental gymnastics that made the JEPD documentary hypothesis seem plausible, there's now no reason not to attribute the Torah to Moses, or a scribe in his service. In Jewish tradition they're called the books of Moses.

    I've studied this for a long time, and yet I am torn as to whether or not the Nachash in Genesis 3 is the same as Lucifer (Satan, The Adversary, who rebelled, etc.) who tempted Eve. Is it that Lucifer, HIMSELF, is a Nachash class of being or was it he, HIMSELF, who did the tempting/smooth-talking of Eve in the Garden, or is it that the Adversary/Lucifer/whatever "possessed" or somehow "coaxed" this "Serpent" (nachash) into tempting Eve. So, in essence, is it literally Satan who's doing the tempting, or is it a conspirator of Satan's who did the tempting FOR Satan? And if it's the latter, why would Lucifer do it that way, and not just do it himself? Your thoughts?

Also, snakes have been proven to have lost their legs, so it could be he truly was made to slither. Either way, I do think there being a massive war in Heaven hints that his fall came before Eden.

    There is a lot of confusion nowadays regarding Satan, and who he is, and what his name is in the Scriptures. Just as the Lord Himself has many names, from the Tree That Preserves Life in the Garden, to the Savior Riding the White Horse in Revelation, the Devil has many names, is called several different things, is characterized in numerous ways, and there are a lot of terms, names, and titles used to identify him. The many names, titles, and terms the Devil is called in the Scriptures: the Serpent/Snake; Satan; the Crooked Serpent/Snake; that Old Serpent/Snake Who Was in the Garden; the Hireling; the Bad Tree That Produces Bad Fruit; the Tree That Produces Knowledge That is both Good and Evil; the Punisher; the Seducer; the First Liar; the First Murderer; the Enemy; the Tempter; the God Who Rules Over This Age; the Accuser; The Angel Ruling Over the Bottomless Abyss; Apollyon (the Destroy er); the Devil; the Evil One; the Wicked One; Beelzebub (the God Who Rules Over the Flies); Lucifer (Light Bearing Son of the Morning); Belial (the Worthless One); the Fake One Who Presents Himself as a Messenger of Light; the Adversary; the Ruler Over Darkness; the Ruler Over the Atmosphere; the Ruler Over the Demons; the Anointed Guardian Kherubim; the Father of Lies; the Great Snake/Serpent (transliterated “Dragon” by the early translators: Huge Snake); the Lawless One; the Imposter; the Deceiver of all the Adamic Races; the Deceiver of the Entire Civilized World; the King of Tyre (as a type); the King of Babylon (as a type); a Fallen Star; the Thief, as the Sheep Stealer; the King Over the Lowest Level of the Pit-the Bottomless Part; the Tree filled with Thorns, the Second Beast in Revelation 13; a Roaring Lion; the False Prophet; the Deranged Serpent/Snake, Leviathan; the Son Who Brings Destruction; the Man Who Brings Sin; Murderer; the Devil who Moves about Like a Raging Lion; all synonymous names for the Serpent in the Garden and all terms and names the Devil is called in the Scriptures. Note: Some of the above were in the genitive construction, all of which require some work to bring into English so readers can appreciate their true meaning. I have fully translated them instead of using the English word, “of” (as the early translators did and that most every translator since has done), for which there is no equivalent in either Hebrew or Hellenistic Greek. The closest would be “ek,” which has the core meaning, “out of,” in Greek. Lilly Bloom

    Well you gave all the Christian names of satan but do you know what is satan called in Hinduism or Sikhism, some might argue that there is no satan in Hinduism at all but he is there & so is GOD, in Hinduism satan is known as Bhram, now don't think I am talking about Bhrama cause Bhrama is the son of Bhram, Bhram also has two more son one is vishnu & the other is shiv, The GODs name in Hinduism is PramAksharBhram or also known as PramAksharPorush (it means the GOD who can create anything with just words) in Vedas GOD'S name is written as "KavirDev" the poetic GOD who with his poems try to reach the inner self of us all in Orthodox Jewish bible His name is EL is KABIR, in Quran ALLAH Akhbar is ALLAH KABIR but Muslims don't except that KABIR is the actual name of GOD rather they say it means the biggest, the knowledge giver of Quran was not GOD himself but he talks about GOD & says to reach ALLAH KABIR one must find the Bakhabar (who is knowledgeable one) who will guide you to the actual GOD. A book for you dear if you have time please read it, I promise you one thing ones you understand what's written in the book, all the pieces to the puzzle of satan & GOD you will start to put together with ease. www.jagatgururampalji.org/click.php?id=101

    ​@@timelesslordkotahi The Septuagint is FAR MORE accurate than the Masoretic text, however - just compare Genesis Chapter 4 in the 2 versions, where the Masoretic scribes seem to have fallen asleep and omitted Cain telling Abel "Let us go into the fields". What God says to Cain in the Septuagint version of Chapter 4 also makes much more sense than the Masoretic version, which does not even explain why Cain's sacrifice was not pleasing to God. People are just biased towards the Masoretic because the King James Version followed it so much, but the King James Version (IDOLATROUS in its associating the name of a SINFUL BRITISH MONARCH with the Word of God) is one of the most embarrassing translations in history.....actually translating the word for the Jewish Passover as EASTER in the Book of Acts (and yet some IGNORANT Protestants cling to it as their only "inspired" translation, some of whom actually go to great lengths pointing out the Pagan origins of 'Easter'. They can't have it both ways when their own "revered" translation uses that Pagan word. Hypocrites!!!!)

    This is so helpful! Genesis 3:1 was really bothering me because to me it didn’t appear to reference satan at all! Now I know why 😄 the whole winged serpent thing totally lines up with descriptions people have given me when they seen demons too so this is all very interesting to me! I love that this was taught in a theological and informative way and not darkness glorifying in any manner! It’s rare to find something like that these days!
