Now, the Bible says all of this.
The Bible says that fathers are important and that men are supposed to be fathers.
This is why God is referred to as a father.
And in fact, the book of Genesis is all about what happens when dad doesn't do a good job.
Adam is not present as a father very much in the Bible.
Eve is present as a mother.
Adam is not very present as a father.
And so Cain ends up slaying Abel.
And when it comes to other fathers in the Bible, the Bible doesn't actually show a lot of great dads.
The Bible tends to show the kinds of mistakes that are made.
But there are a few amazing examples of fatherhood in the Bible.
The top in the book of Genesis would be Abraham and Isaac.
The whole point of the sacrifice story in Abraham and Isaac is the idea that fathers must instill in their children a sense of moral duty that may even cost their lives.
That is a thing that men teach their kids.
Women tend to protect the safety of their kids.
Fathers have to teach their kids how to forge forth into the world and what values are worth standing for.
Very different roles.
