    MODULE 2: SESSION 9: Rebekah’s Plan to Deceive Isaac

    The biblical narrative consistently critiques polygamy by always putting front and center the abuse, neglect, and objectification these women have to endure at the hands of men who accumulate wives. Rivqah hatches a plot that unfolds to the melody of the Genesis 3 failure story.

    MODULE 2: SESSION 8: Reconcile Through Covenant

    Yitskhaq’s story in Genesis 26 is the whole biblical narrative in miniature, and it ends with this scene of reconciliation through covenant. The biblical authors use garden of Eden imagery to talk about the reconciliation of rival families, linking this theme to God’s ultimate purpose of…

    MODULE 2: SESSION 7: Eden Springs in a Dry Land

    Faithful to his promises, God blesses Yitskhaq despite his lack of trust. In the biblical narrative, God’s blessing often becomes a source of jealousy and rivalry between the chosen and the non-chosen characters. The biblical authors weave repeated key words like thread, stitching narrative…

    MODULE 2: SESSION 8: Judah and Tamar

    Literary links at the beginning of Genesis 38 and 39 invite the reader to make a deliberate comparison between Yoseph, who “was taken down” (yarad) from his brothers into Egypt, and Yehudah, who also “went down” (yarad) from his brothers. Yehudah’s story in Genesis 38 provides, in riddle form, an…

    MODULE 2: SESSION 7: Down Into the Pit

    The biblical authors liken Yoseph’s descent into the pit to an animal sent to slaughter. Details like the goat killed for its blood and Potiphar, captain of the butchers, give shape to this image. Through repetition of key vocabulary, the biblical authors link Yoseph’s betrayal with the binding of…
