We have lost so much of the ancient context that the Bible emerged in.

“All your base are belong to us”

“Your gods are nothing but servants of God.”

Solon got just a taste of what Moses would have grown up immersed in as an adopted noble in Egypt.

If you assume The Flood coincided with major milestones in the Great Year and you look at new archeological evidence that is emerging from the same time ≈12K years ago, and you evaluate our cultural artifacts through that lens, what insights are waiting to be found?

Funny how those stories that supposedly happened in Egypt and the great pyramid isn't even mentioned once in that book.

I spent half a century thinking of reasons to discount everything the Bible says. I wish I had spent more time looking for any wisdom I could find in it.

When I realized that Bitcoin encodes a set of rules that are consistent with what the Bible has to say about money and commerce and the importance of honest, fair, and just dealings I changed my approach towards the Bible entirely.

YMMV

I think the cultural loss was intentional.
