NOTE

Embrace the Riddle Within

Biblical authors craft stories and poems laden with ambiguity, enticing readers to engage deeply and reflect upon the layers of meaning. The tale of Cain and Abel serves as a crucial element in understanding human agency in moral choices. It illustrates that individuals can embody the 'seed of the snake,' becoming agents that detract from the goodness of the world through their actions. Notably, the absence of the snake character in subsequent narratives signifies a shift to focus on recognizing the true nature of moral temptation, which can lurk within close relations or within oneself. This subtlety encourages readers to remain vigilant about the influences they allow to guide their decisions, as moral corruption may stem from familiar voices rather than overt external evils.
