Did God create chaos? What is it? What purpose does it serve in the biblical narrative? In this episode, we reexaminie the traditional idea that "the fall" is best seen as an introduction of sin which caused all of creation to fall alongside humanity. We talk about another view where "the fall" is, instead, a path that moves along chaos and away from God. From glory into the dark wilderness of uncreation.
While we do see hints of God vs. Leviathan (the chaos dragon) in the Bible, in Genesis what we see is humanity vs. chaos...what does that mean for our salvation and for creation as a whole?
