b'Is the Noah\\u2019s Ark story in the book of Genesis really about God destroying creation? A spiritual Bible interpretation of the story reveals its true meaning. In this episode, host Curtis Childs guides us through the revelations about the Old Testament parable that eighteenth-century philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg had during his spiritual experiences. Swedenborg\\u2019s perspectives transcend literal interpretations to provide a hopeful lesson about salvation. While it may seem like the Bible story is about God destroying creation, Swedenborg\\u2019s spiritual perspectives suggest that it symbolizes God\\u2019s still-ongoing efforts to save us from self-destruction.
