Q: Why were Adam and Eve the first people? How are there so many nationalities today? Why is there a time period where not much is written about Jesus? 



Summary

In this episode, Dr. E and Hanna wrap up their three-week journey through Sydney’s questions, diving into biblical origins, Jesus’ early life, and the purpose of Scripture itself. Dr. E explores why God created Adam and Eve as the first people and how nationalities came to be, tracing it back to the Tower of Babel and God’s plan for humanity to fill the earth. The discussion turns to Jesus’ “silent years,” the time between His childhood and public ministry, and what Scripture intentionally reveals—and withholds—about His life. 

Dr. E reminds listeners that the Bible gives us everything we need for faith and godliness: to understand our sin condition, God’s love, His redemption through Christ, and His eternal plan. While many of our questions may remain unanswered on earth, eternity will bring clarity beyond imagination. Heaven won’t be an endless church service in the clouds—it will be a perfect, unhindered relationship with the Triune God, filled with purpose, joy, and awe.
