This week Douglas Wilson talks about What to do with the sons of god marrying the daughters of men in Gen. 6. He then goes on to review Hillbilly Elegy, a book by J. D. Vance. Wrapping it up with a look at the New Testament word “Anaskeuandzo.” Happy plodding!

Show notes:

What to do with the sons of god marrying the daughters of men in Gen. 6

One of the things that “precipitated” the flood
In Jude, a certain pronoun links Sodom and Gomorrah to the sons of God
They were attempting eternal life without God

Hillbilly Elegy

Book by J. D. Vance
Published in well time right before the presidency of Trump
Largely autobiographical and memoir
Vance writes about a dysfunctional family
Great book on audible - read by Vance
Helps to understand where someone might be coming from if they look at Trump as a deliverer

Harmartiology

The sin of subversion. (Anaskeuandzo)
Acts 15:24

Plodcast Ep. 71 - Sons of god, Hillbilly Elegy, Anaskeuandzo
