In the previous episode we heard how Adam and Eve wanted to decide for themselves what was right and wrong. They thought they could find good for themselves apart from what God told them, but guess what? Their actions did not bring anything good. Things went from bad to worse for the human race. God could have justifiably left humanity in the mess they'd made for themselves - but he didn't. He made some promises to a certain man that one day things would be better. But trusting God to keep his promises wasn't easy, as we find out in this episode.
