Does God Punish Women with Pain in Childbirth?

This session is from the BibleProject Classroom class Adam to Noah, taught by Dr. Tim Mackie. The entire class is available for free on the BibleProject app at https://classroom-beta.biblepr....oject.com/adam-to-no

The word often translated as "childbirth" or "childbearing" (Heb. "herayon") in Genesis 3:16 is explicitly not the word for "labor" or "childbirth.” How does this shift our understanding of the consequences of humanity's choice in the garden? Join Dr. Tim Mackie and students as they practice their biblical interpretation skills in the Adam to Noah class.
