Recognizing a multiciplicity of meanings : 1. Recognizing a multiciplicity of meanings PRDS, garden or “paradise”Interpretation, 13th century rabbis : PRDS, garden or “paradise”Interpretation, 13th century rabbis In Hebrew PRDS speak about the four-fold approach to the Torah: “The garden within is the garden of Torah—which is the bridge between God and ourselves; it is the creation and creator of our spiritual landscape, the mirror in which God and we see ourselves and each other.” --Ori Z. Soltes PARDES, garden or “paradise”Interpretation, 13th century rabbis : PARDES, garden or “paradise”Interpretation, 13th century rabbis p (P) - P’shat, or literal meaning r (R) - Remez, allegorical meaning d (D) - D’rash, midrashic interpretation (filling in gaps and excavating the text through legends) s (S) - Sod, hidden mystical meanings, the deepest depths beneath the surface of the text PRDS Revisitedby Samuel Bak1994 : PRDS Revisitedby Samuel Bak1994 2. Identifying Our Biases :What presuppositions do we bring to the text? : 2. Identifying Our Biases :What presuppositions do we bring to the text? Slide 10: Develop a short story that told by this story-board. Slide 11: Think about what assumptions you brought to the Exercise of telling a story based on this story-board. 3. Asking Questions:Taking the Bible Seriously : 3. Asking Questions:Taking the Bible Seriously Slide 14: “There is, in a word, nothing comfortable about the Bible—until we manage to get so used to it that we make it comfortable for ourselves. But then we are perhaps too used to it and too at home in it. Let us not be too sure we know the Bible just because we have learned not to be astonished at it, just because we have learned not to have problems with it. Have we perhaps learned at the same time not to really pay attention to it? Have we ceased to question the book and be questioned by it? Have we ceased to fight it? Then perhaps our reading is no longer serious.” --Thomas Merton, “Opening the Bible” Slide 15: “The lesson of truth is not held in one consciousness. It explodes toward the other. To study well, to read well, to listen well, is already to speak: whether by asking questions and, in so doing, touching the master who teaches you, or by teaching a third party.” --Emmanuel Levinas “Beyond the Verse: Talmudic Readings and Lectures” (1994) 4.

True or False A Short Quiz on Genesis 3 : A Short Quiz on Genesis 3 Adam and Eve were asked to leave the garden because they sinned? False NRS Genesis 3:22 Then the LORD God said, "See, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"-- 23 therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.

True or False A Short Quiz on Genesis 3 : A Short Quiz on Genesis 3 The serpent in the story of the garden is described in Genesis as Satan. False NRS Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other wild animal that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God say, 'You shall not eat from any tree in the garden'?“ The text only says that the serpent was more crafty. The term Satan is never used, nor is implied that the serpent is “demonic.” Our understanding of the serpent as “Satan” is an idea we import into the text based on later New Testament interpretation.
