The after they chose to listen to the adversary it was sort of like a De- Evolution. Then the flood happened. Abraham, his sons.<br />His sons were jealous of the youngest brother and sold him to slave traders. Later they had to go down to Egypt for food.<br />Then is seems they reaped a harvest for selling their Brother ans they all became slaves. An interesting side note being a slave in Egypt was they worked and got paid but Pharoah took 20 percent. It that was slavery it seems like employee is the new modern word for forced Taxation. So along comes Moses and the Law he received. Now think on that how far mankind had gotten away from the original state. The Law of Moses was instruction on how to get back. It was not the end all but a Tutor as the Apostle Paul would write much later. The law was never meant to be the salvation but a tutor until the time came.

I think I will "borrow" some of that.<br /><br />I really like how these Fathers linked the idea of natural law and Mosaic law together with the story about the flood in Noah's day. Irenaeus has always been may favorite Father. I have always appreciated Chrysostom too, as much as I have read them.<br /><br />I also agree that the West started to abandon God in the Renaissance but it was finalized in the Enlightenment. I discuss that in a bit of detail in the links.<br /><br />https://thecrosssectionrmb.blogspot.com/2020/10/how-should-we-then-live-chapter-3.html<br />https://thecrosssectionrmb.blogspot.com/2020/11/how-should-we-then-live-chapter-6.html<br />https://thecrosssectionrmb.blogspot.com/RMBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13603112499567064214noreply@blogger.com
