Episode notes

In chapter eight, we get the middle of the flood narrative. There's a literary device here used that's called a chiasmus. It shows up in hebrew and greek and latin texts all over the place. We even use it to day. Martin luther, king junior, used it. Abraham lincoln used it. And this is what we're supposed to focus on. The first verse in chapter eight says, god remembered noah. And not only noah, but every living thing. What he ends up doing is sending a wind to pass over the earth so that the waters subside and the waters start to go away. I they stillr are in there

Dr. Krystal Pierce returns, and we discuss the wickedness in Noah's day helps us prepare for the Second Coming, the importance of covenants, and how tokens of covenants allow us to remember the Atonement and the Savior.
