JOURNAL ENTRY #4 “GENESIS”

As we continue reading Genesis chapter 4 through 11 we can see a great alienation of humanity from one another. There will be a few chapters of records of generations of different offspring’s but these contribute to the idea of alienation and how humanity are growing apart re-populating in different regions of the world also losing their ability to live long lives. The tale of Cain and Abel is a great example of the derivation from god and humanity. The outcome with Cain slaying Abel will show the evil of humanity and how the earth will always be stained with violence. Noah’s Flood will also illustrate the cleansing of the earth also reinforcing the idea of how humanity has lost their way by riding the world of the blood of Abel. Lastly the Tower of Babel will greatly show that humanity will form different regions and branch out.
