Listen "S3E5: Creation and the Redemptive Narrative"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we discuss creation as a paradigm for redemption. We looked at Genesis and the creation narrative as the seedbed of eschatological expectation in Jewish tradition. The Tanakh, like the later second temple Jewish literature, sees eschatological hope for everlasting life in context to a new heavens and a new earth. By the time of the New Testament writers, conversations related to eschatology and eternal life were conceptually inseparable from a renewed creation. Show notes Understanding creation as a paradigm for redemption (2:27) Creation and redemption in the Tanakh - Gen. 5; Ps. 90; Targum Ps. 1; Targum Jer. 23 (6:17) Creation and redemption in the prophetic material - Isa. 25; Isa. 65; Isa. 11 (16:25) Creation and redemption in Second Temple literature - Jubilees 1; 2 Enoch 31, 33, 65 (21:47) The New Testament writers presume this same paradigm (28:19) Why inaugurationalism falls short as a paradigm for redemption (35:37)
