Ladder of Jacob (Pseudepigrapha)
Manage episode 406068435 series 3467318
Hey, guys. Had some things come up to where the planned episode on Genesis 32 wasn't able to be recorded in time, so I called an audible and decided to cover something for fun. The Ladder of Jacob is a pseudepigraphic work (falsely attributed scripture) from the 100s-200s AD. It is not scripture, but still has some insights we can glean from it.
Who wrote the Ladder of Jacob? Why is it non-canonical? Is there anything we can learn from it? Is it Gnostic? How does it combine Genesis 28 and 32? How does it show a false take on angels? Who is Sariel? What does as above, so below mean?
