But here we have the corresponding artistic representation of the cause of our need for redemption, again according to Genesis. And now, as Adam and Eve leave Paradise in disgrace, to take their place in a fallen world because of their sin, time becomes part of that fallen world, and shares in its need for redemption. So now, time is in need of sanctification, and this is another aspect of the Liturgy of the Hours. In the New Testament Christians are called to 'redeem the time' (Eph. 5:16) by their holy way of living the Gospel message, and so bring the light of redemption into the darkness of this fallen world.
