The Breakfast Club (Torey, Nick, Palmer, Gardner)

Today we discussed four things about Genesis 1-3: the significance of the serpent, the words of God vs. the acts of God, and the nature of woman to man and how that ties into the interpretation the author(s) is trying to convey about their relationship. We determined that the serpent varies according to your religion: temptations and green for Jews, and Satan for Christians. Our group determined that the word of God is to be followed and understood, while the acts of God cannot be redone. We also discussed the two interpretations of men and woman: the first saying they’re equal, and the second saying men came from woman. These two different interpretations and understandings of the relationship between men and women allow us to gain more insight as to what the connection truly is.
