This time Fr. John and Danny explore Judah’s descent in Genesis 38, where he turns away from his brothers and embraces a worldly, sensual life by marrying a Canaanite woman. The narrative highlights the dangers of “seeing and taking,” or concupiscence, which distorts love into self-gratification rather than self-giving. Ultimately, Judah’s fall serves as a mirror for God’s people today, reminding us of our own tendencies toward selfishness and the need for spiritual awakening.
