Episode notes
Cultures rely on a shared set of stories, moral values, principles, and metaphors to communicate effectively and convey profound meanings from history. These common narratives form a vocabulary that allows people to engage in meaningful dialogue, as seen in ancient Greece and Rome through the works of Homer and myths. Similarly, Western civilization draws on the Bible—an essential source of stories and metaphors for the past thousand or two thousand years—to imbue its discourse with richness and depth. Stories like the Babel and Job narratives carry significant emotional weight and complexity, contributing to the cultural fabric and communication within societies.
