What a package is in this video! It suggests Adam and Eve in their first regal state alongside God. Then the devil's lies. The Fall. The consequences of suffering and death. The grief over lost holy fellowship and loss of the joy of a clean slate.
The image of the woman in long dress suggests the Bride of Christ knowing that she is wayward. Wandering. Searching for a way back.
The black man swings his axe. Constricted in hard work and remorse and the grim spectre of death. He hears a call to the River. He joins a seeking, resolute bunch of inquirers. Repentant. Beneath the waters. Dead with Christ. But then emerging with resurrection life. Truly taken back and free.
Fall in a Garden (Genesis). Restoration in a Garden (Revelation chapters 21 and 22) |
