My God From the Womb

David writes:
“Yet you brought me out of the womb; 
you made me feel secure on my mother’s breast.
From birth I was cast on you;

Adding to the Commandments

It is an interesting point in the story of the Fall that Eve adds to God’s prohibition.  In Genesis 2:16-17, God instructed the man, Adam, not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.  Then in Genesis 3:3, Eve replies to the serpent concerning the prohibition saying, “…But God did say, ‘You [...]

The Opening of Our Eyes

As I was preparing for the sermon that was delivered this past Sunday, I was struck by the line, “Then the eyes of both of them were opened…” (Gen. 3:7).  This line alone provides enough for an entire sermon.  Though Adam and Eve’s eyes were opened in a way that we cannot imagine, we do [...]
