The readings today are brilliant and provocative.
The first is from Genesis where Adam and Eve are tempted based on two ideas, first, that God does not want us to be like Him or, two, that humanity is incapable of seeking the Good. Both positions demand we recognize an animosity between man and God.
The second is Paul's epistle where he argues that the Fall depended upon one man and that Christ's sacrifice was a symmetrical salvation.
The gospel is the Temptation in the Desert where Christ stands against the material and humanity's worst instincts and, at the same time, argues for Free Will.
Very interesting, concentrated stuff well worth the time to read and ponder. And something to include in the pondering: The devil in the first two temptations starts each with "If you are the Son of God..." Does that mean the devil was unsure?
