Genesis 1-2 was likely written or compiled during the Babylonian exile—a time when Israel had lost land, temple, and national identity. Framed as a poetic and liturgical text, the creation story stands in contrast to Babylonian myths of violence and domination. Instead, it offers a radically different vision: a world made in love, by a God who blesses and invites. In exile, this was not just theology—it was resistance, hope, and the reimagining of identity. Even today, when we find ourselves in the midst of chaos, change, or staring into the unfamiliar, these ancient words invite us into the same sacred imagination. What if this story offers us hope, resistance, and a chance to reimagine who we are—and who God still calls us to be?
