Pluralising the translation almost reverses the meaning of the entire episode.
#War of the gods upgrade#
Seen in the context of a plural Elohim the narrative flips, far from being a fall the conflict is over an upgrade to the human condition. Traditionally the story of the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden has been told as the fall of humanity from a state of innocence. Other anomalies in the stories of Genesis raise questions about the departure of Homo Sapiens Sapiens from the array other hominids occupying planet Earth in the distant past.
These planetary changes would have caused sky fires, rapid freezing and immense tsunamis on a global scale. These correlations among ancient narratives in which our cultural memory begins on a flooded and devastated planet hint at the possibility that these stories have their roots in the ancestral memory of Earth’s most recent planetary cataclysm – the global impact of the Clovis Comet an extinction level event along with the trauma of the Younger Dryas Cold period from 12,800 to 11,600 years ago. However, a number of anomalies in the stories themselves, along with intriguing questions of translation point to another possibility. So where does that association come from?įor more than two millennia readers of the Old Testament, the Hebrew Scriptures, have interpreted these ancient texts as stories of God – a seamless narrative in which God creates the heavens and the earth, botanical and animal life and eventually the human race. Nothing in the Genesis story makes that equation. Do the Bible and many ancient narratives around the world tell a story of humanities contact with Ancient Aliens? Why is the serpent of Genesis 3 so often equated with evil, with the Devil or Satan.
