About this episode
Biblical scholar Dr. David Carr joins Bible & Archaeology to revisit the Garden of Eden story in Genesis and consider how later traditions have shaped familiar interpretations.
The conversation explores the serpent, the forbidden fruit, original sin, and the image of God. It also considers Cain and Abel and Noah’s Flood as part of a broader discussion of humanity, creation, and paradise.
