  • Summary

  • Host Martin Tanner gives an overview of the Garden of Eden, Noah's Ark, the Tower of Babel and the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. He gives the background and meaning of each of these narratives, and demonstrates the meaning behind each is punishment for wickedness, or in other words disobeying God, always has consequences. Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden, a "stepped" location on a hillside, for breaking God's command. All mankind were drowned except Noah and his family, due to wickedness. Martin explains why Noah and the Ark was likely a localized event, not a worldwide flood. The Tower of Babel was real. It was a ziggurat, or stepped pyramid. God confounded the languages due to their wickedness in building the ziggurat. The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were utterly destroyed by God due to their wickedness. The Bible says those cities were located where the southern end of the Dead Sea is now found. They are under the waters of the Dead Sea.
