Of Dust and Kings had an excellent article on the nakedness of Adam and Eve in Genesis 2.

In Exodus 12, YHWH comes down into the midst of Egypt and he slays the firstborn of every household in the land, both Jew and Egyptian. In… Read More »
Steps are pretty important when it comes to getting from one level of a building to another. Otherwise, we’d be jumping and climbing a lot.
