Feminism and Biblical Hermeneutics Quotes

“Still, there are other factors besides direct social interaction that do make Adam’s guilt on par with his wife’s: First, Adam didn’t recite the commandments of God the way his wife did before she was fully convinced, nor did he hesitate when he presented the fruit. Genesis 3:6 simply mentioned that he ate it. From this observation, Adam, like his wife, also had the impetuousness to not recite them, let alone listen to God’s commands. Secondly, Genesis 3:6 also mentions that Adam was WITH Eve, who was WITH the snake, meaning that Adam was aware of a sinner (Eve) and a producer of sinners. Eve was directly willing to interact with the snake, but Adam was willing to interact with a sinner and be an eyewitness to the Devil’s temptations, and, even with that, he still was convinced to eat the fruit. In other words, he was both convinced by his human wife and, while being convinced, he had the credulity to condone the production of sin and to also be convinced by the Devil.”

“The verse mentions saving daughters as well as sons before Sodom is destroyed, and those daughters include the daughters Lot was about to offer to the men. Instead of commanding Lot to save himself and leave his daughters to be raped while Sodom was getting destroyed, the angels emphasized the maintenance of the welfare of all members of Lot’s family, including his daughters.”
