Sermon by The Rev. Junchol Lee, September 1, 2019
Scripture readings: Genesis 3:20-24; Jeremiah 17:5-14
Throughout the Bible, naming is considered as a very significant act. Abram and Sarai were changed into Abraham and Sarah when the prophecy of having a male child was about to be fulfilled. And, Jacob was changed into Israel, when he was returning home with wives and children. We explore the meaning of naming Eve from a Swedenborgian perspective.
