On the road to Sodom (me)- Chapter 7
Listen now
Description
In this episode, we pick up with Abraham, Sarah, and this anthropomorphic figure who would be Abraham's Lord. This is a literal interpretation of Genesis chapters 12 through 25, where we try to piece together the original redactor's intentions of the texts. It appears that in 90% of the story, this Lord is characterized as quite human and doing human like things that are very similar to other Mesopotamian kings during that period. The remaining 10% seemingly is more of an immaterial character in the story. Perhaps a local deity other than the Lord himself? Based on the book, "An everlasting quid pro quo" by Bernard Lamborelle
