In this episode of Genesis Marks the Spot, we finally dive into a long-anticipated topic: frame semanticsâa cognitive linguistic tool that could revolutionize how we approach biblical texts. From exploring how the word "rest" is more than just a Sabbath nap, to rethinking the identity of the Satan in Job and why the Sons of God are unique, this episode is a thoughtful journey into how meaning is framed, shaped, and sometimes flattened when we donât consider conceptual structures behind words.
The usual truth-conditional semantics (where meaning hinges on objective truth) contrasts with the more holistic and contextual approach of frame semantics which is a better fit for the approach of biblical theology. Whether youâre a seasoned theology nerd or new to these ideas, this episode will challenge how you read Scriptureâand may just spark your next Bible study breakthrough.
Topics Covered:
What is frame semantics, and why does it matter for Bible study?
How our language frames the way we think (and vice versa)
The nuanced difference between ârestâ and âreliefâ
Why âthe Satanâ in Job might not be who you think he is
Cognitive vs. structural approaches to Scripture
How to use this tool in your own studies (and a call to collaborate!)Donât forget to download the handout mentioned in the episode for a visual aid to the concepts discussed. Want to help develop the next version? Carey is looking for collaborators!

You know his name. You know the flood. You might even think you know why Noah was given that name in the first place. But what if I told you⊠there's some strange artifcacts with ârestâ in Genesis 5:29? What if the comfort Lamech longed for wasnât exactly what Noah delivered? Or maybe it was more than he was looking for...
Today, weâre digging into the meaning of Noahâs name, the toil of the world he was born into, and the restâand what form of itâthat followed. Because as it turns outâŠ
This is the rest of the story.

As You Wish⊠Or Maybe Not? Rethinking Genesis 3:16.
Genesis 3:16 has been a theological battleground for centuriesâwas Eve cursed? Does this verse establish male rule? And why did the ESV change its translation again? In this episode, we dive deep into the Hebrew text, ancient interpretations, and modern theological debates surrounding this passage.
Weâll explore:
Rabbinic and early Christian views on Eveâs "curse"
Whether Genesis 3:16 prescribes or describes male rulership
The ESV translation shiftâwhat it means and why it matters
The surprising implications of Hebrew grammar (Hendiadys, anyone?)
How this passage connects to the broader biblical storyFrom Augustine to Chrysostom, from the Hebrew text to modern scholarship, weâre pulling back the curtain on one of the most debated verses in Scripture. Whether you lean complementarian, egalitarian, or somewhere in between, this episode will challenge assumptions and spark new insights.

Genesis 1:28 - Is human rule meant only for animals and not for other humans? What is biblical government? Tying in some modern social psychology with Jonathan Haidt's moral foundation theory, I offer an encouragement to political engagement in a self-giving way rather than engaging in one-up-manship.

What if we've all got an overdeveloped sense of vengeance? How are guilt and justice portrayed in the Bible, especially in relation to God's character? What does shame have to do with (legal) guilt? How do these concepts develop? And...why does Genesis 1-11 seem so Mesopotamian??

Part 2 of the third Parable of Enoch. In this parable, we find some interesting bits about Noah and what's behind the flood, and ruminate on salvation, critical thinking, dangerous books, and what's upcoming on the podcast. Bit of a rambly episode at the end, but just opening the door a bit to consider some thoughts and importance of where we place our foundations.

Part 1 of the third Parable of Enoch. (Guys, I tried to fit it into one episode, but the more the merrier, right??) In this parable, we find some interesting bits about Noah and start to see what's behind the flood, and end up ruminating about what this text tells us about salvation--especially between OT and NT. (To be continued next week!)

A review of Heath Henning's book, The Unbiblical Realm: Refuting the Divine Council of Michael Heiser's Deuteronomy 32 Worldview. Spoiler alert: I give this book negative stars.
Henning can't even present Dr. Heiser's understanding of the word elohim correctly, which is one of the most basic things that one must get "right" in order to understand much of what Dr. Heiser teaches. (Note: If you want to critique someone, you need to get what they say correct. Otherwise, don't bother.)

How much blame does Augustine deserve for the Sethite view of Genesis 6:1-4? A discussion on why I think the "angelic" view of Genesis 6 should be primary, and how the "human" view got solidified over time. Spoiler alert: it's politics.
