Genesis 9:1-4
A Commentary on God's Concession to Eat Flesh

Re: Genesis 9:1-4 - A Commentary on God's Concession to Eat Flesh by Frank L. Hoffman

Glad to hear you teach that, Frank: "the eating of flesh is evil, even if consented to by God" Permission to do something is not direction or instruction to do something.

There, again, we have the conceptual or logical distinction between "the active will of God" and "the permissive will of God".
