The Serpent in the (Gnostic) Garden of Eden

Derek Lambert (Mythvision Podcast); Pat Macpherson, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
There are different interpretations of the same ancient Sumerian story Jews appropriated and abrogated to themselves, which fundamentalists Christians imported and took at face value thereby confounding themselves.

What we didn't know about the Garden of Eden in Genesis - Dr. Elaine Pagels
(MythVision Podcast) Dec. 9, 2023: From the Princeton University religious historian Prof. Elaine Pagels (elaine-pagels.com) whose work, The Gnostic Gospels, won both the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award comes a dramatic interpretation of "Satan" and his role in the Christian tradition.

With magisterial learning and the elan of a born storyteller, Prof. Pagels turns Satan’s story into an audacious exploration of Christianity’s shadow side, in which the "gospel of love" gives way to irrational hatreds that continue to haunt Christians and non-Christians alike. #MythVision #Gnostic #ElainePagels
