Week, WorkingPreacher.org, 2009.
|
"A key for understanding the complexities of Genesis 2–3 is to
remember its form. Like many stories in Genesis 1–11, the Eden tale
is an etiology. That is, the story helps to explain important
questions about certain realities in life—why is there pain in
childbirth, why is the ground hard to work, why do snakes crawl upon
the earth, etc." |

easily note that so too does this passage represent the first
creation of an institution within civilization as a whole." |

Douglas MacCallum Lindsay Judisch, Concordia Theological Seminary

| "In biblical culture the leaving and cleaving
of verse 24 would not necessarily involve a physical move, much less a
desertion of filial responsibilities. The point is, rather, that
marriage constitutes a distinctly new building-block of the human race
in which the man and woman are committing themselves to obligations
involving inseparability which a child does not owe to his parents." |

"Eden: Moral Power of a Biblical Landscape," Theodore Hiebert,
(other resources at)
"Moral Landscape of Creation," Christian Reflection, The Center for Christian
Ethics at Baylor University, 2001.
| "The most familiar
of all biblical landscapes, the Garden of Eden, offers wisdom to
reshape our values toward nature. No other story in our religious
heritage so clearly shows that we are linked to our landscapes and
that our work is to be in the service of nature’s needs and orders." |

|
"The Stewardship of Creation," Russell A. Butkus,
(other resources at)
"Moral Landscape of Creation," Christian Reflection, The Center for Christian
Ethics at Baylor University, 2001.
| "Viewed through
the lens of Scripture, the environmental crisis is best understood
as creation-in-crisis, which elevates the significance of our
situation to the very heart of God. We are called to have dominion
over the earth; this does not mean to exploit, but to exercise care
and responsibility for God’s domain particularly in the interest of
those who are poor and marginalized." |

theology of creation, we must act on our responsibilities." |

"An Overlooked Message: The Critique of Kings and Affirmation of
Equality in the Primeval History," Robert K. Gnuse, Biblical
Theology Bulletin, 2006.
| "Kings who receive the strident
barbs of the author include not only Mesopotamian rulers, but also,
by implication, the rulers of Israel and Judah, who likewise abused
their powers. This exilic critique of kings is also, in turn, part
of the great biblical message affirming human equality and dignity,
and it speaks a powerful egalitarian word to any age." |

being finer than all of the aromatic plants (of this world); and in each

| "In this garden the shepherd replaces
the leopards to tend the sheep; and the servant replaces the masters, and
Leviathan is replaced by the Lamb, who is the Sacrificial Lord. In this
way the oppressive political order, unjust exploitation, war for security
and survival, and harmony with the nature will be expelled from the
created order of God, and justice, peace, and integrity of creation will
be fulfilled in the Garden of God." |

a sin and Eve into a sexual temptress, the ancestress of witchery, the
root of evil and the cause of the Fall." |
