Violence and the Divine: Unpacking Genesis 6
This chapter critically examines the language of 'taking' in Genesis 6, arguing it reflects instances of violence against women, akin to rape in a patriarchal society. It connects ancient narratives to present-day themes of exploitation and divine authority, while exploring the implications of the supernatural beings known as the Watchers and their impact on humanity. The discussion draws parallels between biblical accounts and ancient myths, revealing deep cultural narratives about power, sacrifice, and cosmic struggles.
