Not a "great theological work?" I can't say. What I can say is that this is so much more compelling than the immense weight, dread, fear, etc., that I've carried for four decades thanks to my spiritual upbringing. I feel like the winds may be starting to change direction. Thank you.
Seems pretty great to me 😂 thank you for posting this! Been hoping to see it since I first heard you mention on the podcast. I also feel like it beautifully summarizes “the story” and what God has been doing for us since our creation
Colossians 1:21 clarifies what the separation is that sin causes. It’s alienation and a hostile attitude. It’s only a physical separation in the sense that a sinful heart keeps our body enslaved to sin, and prevents worship. But we cannot be physically be separated from an omnipresent God. People get tripped up on that because the story so often localizes God’s presence (holy places). “Who will ascend the hill of the Lord?” (Psalms 24) Just because someone doesn’t have clean hands and a pure heart doesn’t mean that God isn’t with them on the bottom of the hill. God’s their grieving and patiently waiting.

Not a great theological work, maybe. But artistically, chef's kiss.
Make sense to me.
Rabz would you say that this guilty conscience is what Kabbalah calls the bread of shame ?
Love it
