Takeaways
Description
The epic drama of God's desire for self-knowledge is revealed through a meticulous, thorough, and inspired study of the Old Testament. Through this detailed narrative, it becomes clear that God is a 'fighter' whose greatest struggle is with himself. He can be destructive and constructive, conceited and modest, sophisticated and naïve, cruel and delicate, lawful and lawless, strong but impotent, omniscient and blind. But his greatest revelation occurs when he learns that his own reflection in the mirror cannot be the same as he sees himself. Instead, he finds a rival in humanity whom he must destroy.
