The Strange Link Between Bread, Zeus, & Genesis

Why does Hesiod call humans "men who live by bread"? In this episode, we dive into the mysterious Greek epithet alphestes and discover how Genesis 3 provides the answer that Greek mythology lacks. I was reading Hesiod’s Theogony and Works and Days when a specific phrase caught my eye: "Men who live by bread." After scouring the Odyssey and other classical Greek texts, I realized this wasn't just a poetic flourish—it’s a definition of mortality itself. Today, we explore the "Deuteronomy 32 Worldview" (pioneered by Dr. Michael Heiser), the fall of the Divine Council, and why Zeus may have intentionally kept the truth of human immortality hidden. From the "calamity" of Pandora to the true Bread of Life in John 6, we trace the thread of hope from ancient Greece to Jesus Christ. 00:00 The Mystery of "Men Who Live By Bread" 01:15 Searching for Answers in Homer’s Odyssey 02:45 What is an Epithet?
