This week Douglas Wilson talks about What to do with the sons of god marrying the daughters of men in Gen. 6. He then goes on to review Hillbilly Elegy, a book by J. D. Vance. Wrapping it up with a look at the New Testament word “Anaskeuandzo.” Happy plodding!

 

Show notes:

 

What to do with the sons of god marrying the daughters of men in Gen. 6

  • One of the things that “precipitated” the flood
  • In Jude, a certain pronoun links Sodom and Gomorrah to the sons of God
  • They were attempting eternal life without God

 

Hillbilly Elegy

  • Book by J. D. Vance
  • Published in well time right before the presidency of Trump
  • Largely autobiographical and memoir
  • Vance writes about a dysfunctional family
  • Great book on audible – read by Vance
  • Helps to understand where someone might be coming from if they look at Trump as a deliverer

 

Harmartiology

  • The sin of subversion. (Anaskeuandzo)
  • Acts 15:24
