The Bible demonstrates here, in a variety of ways, God’s opinion and response to human weakness. And what eventually emerges fully (in the NT) is an understanding of weakness opposite and counter-intuitive to everything we’re taught in society (in the secular world) AND even contrary to what we learn in spirituality, religion and morality as well.

1. Retelling the story AND
2. What this odd story contributes to the Bible’s unique understanding of weakness
