Sublime theological implications

"The story in Genesis about Adam and Eve eating forbidden fruit is worth years of meditation. Somehow, eating the wrong things brings a curse on life. The story has far-reaching and sublime theological implications, but may also speak to the simple truth that we can be nourished or poisoned with whatever we take into ourselves- the books we read, the people we associate with, the religion we follow, or the food we eat…"

From "The Re-Enchantment of Everyday Life" by Thomas Moore


What does "sublime" mean here? Sublime sometimes means "great and impressive". Here the story teaches a hard lesson. I don't think "sublime" means "impressive" here.
