    discussion relevant to this wiki
     
 * Does verse 4 of the Job reading refer to Adam or humankind? Do you see another allusion to the curse on Adam in verse 7?
 
 * Compare the "Beginning" theme in 1 John with the beginning of his Gospel — and of the Bible!
 
 * What types of knowing are there? What types of knowledge does John mean in ch. 2:3? Is scientific knowledge also good for any spiritual purpose?
 
 * The recipients of 1 John had been hearing "from the beginning" (ch. 2:7) — does this shed light on the claim that John's reference to "the beginning" validates a particular interpretation of Genesis?
