East of Eden: Curses, Coverings, and the First Gospel
Update: 2025-09-28
Description
Genesis 3 closes with justice and mercy side by side. We walk through God’s words to the serpent, the woman, and the man, noting that only the serpent and the ground are explicitly cursed, and exploring how childbirth sorrow and fractured relationships name life outside the garden. We consider why patriarchy is a result of the fall, not God’s design, how toil reshapes our vocation, and why exile explains the ache we all feel. Along the way we talk proto-gospel hope, the meaning of Eve’s name, spiritual warfare as everyday unity, and God’s tender act of clothing his children. The story does not end east of Eden. In Christ, the serpent’s head is crushed and the way home is opened.
