Episode 07: Pirates & Poetry
Manage episode 338778824 series 3378022
TOV first shows up in a pirate poem. Every pirate knows, X marks the spot and that’s the poems shape (scholars call it a chiasm).
The first people to hear Genesis 1:1-5 had lived under an Egyptian king that enslaved them, making every attempt to keep them from living their TOV. "Pirates," according to Kester Brewin, "emerge whenever economies become blocked" (from Mutany!). Playing pirate made sense, it doesn’t get more blocked than them.
Nowadays we’re blocked by different things, but that treasure map still charts the course to your TOV.
