The Four Senses of Scripture

In a three page paper please use the Four Senses of Scripture to explore the meaning of either the Fall of Man and the subsequent curses found in Genesis 3 OR the Flood and subsequent covenant with Noah found in Genesis 6-9. With an emphasis on the literal sense, please give context in how (and why!) the event in question occurred, what it means for not only those directly involved but all men, and how the event might point to Christ. This paper is due on 2/16 by 11:59pm. Points will be deducted for papers submitted after 11:59pm on 2/16. For every following day the paper is late, ten points will be deducted from the total score. After three days, unless there are circumstances truly beyond the control of the student, the paper will not be accepted and will be given a zero.
This paper should:
Use Times New Roman 12pt font
Be double spaced
Include page numbers
Use Chicago style citation
Include a Bibliography in Chicago style
Use at least three sources in addition to the Bible and Bergsma
Use appropriate academic style (do not use first person, do not use contractions, do not use colloquialisms, as a few examples)
Have a strong thesis statement that provides an idea of what you will unpack in the paper
Focus in on the characters in question, what they say (or omit saying), and how they interact with one another and with God
This paper should not:
Describe the Four Senses to me at length. I already know what they are. Dive right in to using them to think through your chosen passage.
Use long paragraphs to provide context. I already know the context, I want to make sure you know the context, but few sentences are sufficient for this end.
