Scripture Insights – 10th Sunday in Ordinary Time Taken from Source Book for Sundays, Seasons and Weekdays 2024: The Almanac for Pastoral Liturgy, LTP Liturgy Training Publications Copyright 2023, 3949 South Racine Avenue, Chicago, IL 60609, pg. 234. Today’s Genesis narrative begins the consequences of humankind’s disobedience to God. God presented his covenantal promises to all humankind through Adam: he may dwell in and nurture Eden, but he must obey the one prohibition of eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. God then creates Adam’s partner. The woman was led to forsake the covenant by the cunning serpent, and Adam has participated. God now comes to spend time with creation during the breezy time of day to find humankind in shame and hiding due to their new knowledge. That God is omniscient Creator has been established, so God’s questions about what happened must be understood as a way to allow Adam to take responsibility for his actions. Adam fails: he blames both the woman and God! The woman likewise fails and blames the serpent. As the consequences continue, we learn of the world we inhabit. Relationships with one another and with creation have been disordered by these early choices. In Mark, Jesus’ early ministry conflicts with those who think they know him. He teaches by telling stories through metaphor to get them thinking beyond what they think they know. He is then forced to look beyond his biological family for advocates and understanding. It is living and doing the will of God that now creates family and facilitates the kingdom of God.
