    God had Adam name every living them. But God, himself named this creation Woman. A profound difference.

    If Adam had not sinned, and was able to resist Satan for the allotted time period (possibly 1000 years) then there would have been no need for God to promise the coming of His Son in Genesis 3:15.

    After they disobeyed, the skin was added ( Genesis 3:21).

    Reproduction was a gift given to all of mankind, including Adam and Eve, on the 6th day, before they disobeyed ( Genesis 1:28, 2:25).
  • Mark Padmore - In Reply on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    @D.J, the question is: Did God have plan for multiplication of the human race before they disobeyed? Was it after that they sinned (disobeyed), that the plan was revealed and the "7 layers of membrane" removed to form the reproductive organs?

    Thank you for your question. Genesis 1:26-31, Genesis 2:4,

    Genesis 5:3-4,

    Look closely it only mentioned "Seth in his image, likeness of Adam" Luke 3: * Luke 3:38 *

    John 21:25 , Hebrew 11:32 if scripture talks about not being able to contain acts in books or even our own time on this earth; then why would we believe it could?

    It's been pointed out to me that scripture was written to expose the Messiah, Saviour of the world. 1 Corinthian 15:45-47

    In Genesis 2:7 and Genesis 7:14, it sounds like "two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life" means all human beings entered with the animals, and that makes more sense of where the different races came from than Ham, Shem and Japheth and their wives making the different skin tones and unique features.

    Go to: KJVbible.org. It's named similar to this site, but they are different.

    It's about the Bible and Geology. It's a long read, but interesting.

    Wesley's Notes for Genesis 5:24

    5:24 He was not, for God took him - That is, as it is explained, # Heb 11:5, he was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him. But why did God take him so soon? Surely because the world, which was now grown corrupt, was not worthy of him. Because his work was done, and done the sooner for his minding it so closely. He was not, for God took him - He was not any longer in this world: it was not the period of his being, but of his being here. He was not found; so the apostle explains it from the seventy; not found by his friends, who sought him, as the sons of the prophets sought Elijah, # 2Kings 2:17. God took him body and soul to himself in the heavenly paradise, by the ministry of angels, as afterwards he took Elijah. He was changed, as those saints shall be that will be found alive at Christ's second coming.

    Comment by Mishael: much like Adam in Genesis; before he and Eve ate the fruit.
  • Brian D. - In Reply on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    Was Enoch's translation by God ( Hebrews 11:5) part of the Rapture?
  • Thomas on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    In Reply on the meaning and/or use of the word "rapture

    Read Romans 24 you'll find your answer. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

    38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,

    39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

    40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

    41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

    42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

    Mark Padmore,

    Adam and Eve did not need any type of covering because they had not sinned yet.

    As angels of light, they were pure.

    They were creations of God (i.e. no belly button / no parent)

    The covering they may have put on was the 7 layers of membrane we call skin.

    After they sinned, the adjustment of God's plan was made.

    God is prepared for everything.
  • Mark Padmore on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    On Genesis 2:25 "And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed." Why did they have to be naked, didn't God have plan for multiplication of the human race before the disobedience and thereafter? Were mankind to be naked forever had they not disobeyed?
  • Donna Williams - In Reply on Genesis 1:27 - 4 years ago
    Joseph, as it pertains to whether or not the land of Nod was inhabited/uninhabited, in my opinion we cannot draw a conclusion one way or another. However, I believe that we can only go by what has been revealed to us in the written word of God.

    As Christians, we must believe and receive the word of God by faith. Hebrews 11:3 says, " through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

    We will never be able to fully comprehend the word of God by our own human reasoning or intellect. 1Corinthains 2:14, "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him, neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." (Understood)

    We must allow the Holy Spirit to teach us and give us wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of Scripture to avoid erroneous beliefs which ultimately leads to erroneous doctrine.

    In regards to the creation of Adam, again we must adhere to what is written.

    It is evident in Genesis 2:7, that Adam became a "living soul", he was human. We were created in the image and likeness of God, in that we are triune beings: spirit, soul and body, as God who is a Spirit, is the Father, the Word, (that was made flesh, John 1:14), and the Holy Spirit. ( 1John 5:7)

    Adam was the first man who was created from the dust of the ground or the earth by God. But Christ who is called the second Adam, is the one who is, and the giver of life. He is the firstborn of the New Creation of God.

    Finally, I would like to express the danger of leaning to our own understanding. It is my sincere prayer and desire that you have a personal encounter with the Holy Spirit of God who will lead you and guide you into all truth!

    Wesley's Commentary for Genesis 2:20

    2:18-20 It is not good that man - THIS man, should be alone - Though there was an upper world of angels, and a lower world of brutes, yet there being none of the SAME RANK of beings with himself, Adam might be truly said to be alone. And every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air God brought to Adam - Either by the ministry of angels, or by a special instinct that he might name them, and so might give a proof of his knowledge, the names he gave them being expressive of their inmost natures.

    There were other beings: God's created angels; and the evil angels who followed Lucifer. God chose neither.

    He chose to perform surgery on Adam, with one of his ribs. If my memory is right: men have one less rib than women do. Someone medical can prove that.

  • CLEAVING - In Reply on Psalms 91:7 - 4 years ago
    It just works better this way. God means for the couple to draw close, unite in purpose and become ONE. It's about core; inner circle:

    Men may have to eat a few deadly meatloafs, but there will be peace in the home. :D. (AllrecipesDotCom)

    Mark 10:7

    For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;

    Genesis 2:24

    Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

    Matthew 19:5

    And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

    Joshua 23:8

    But cleave unto the LORD your God, as ye have done unto this day.

    Deuteronomy 4:4

    But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God, are alive every one of you this day.

    Joseph in Charge of Egypt

    41 So Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I hereby put you in charge of the whole land of Egypt." 42 Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his finger and put it on Joseph's finger. He dressed him in robes of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck. 43 He had him ride in a chariot as his second-in-command,[a] and people shouted before him, "Make way[b]!" Thus he put him in charge of the whole land of Egypt.

    44 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I am Pharaoh, but without your word no one will lift hand or foot in all Egypt." 45 Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-Paneah and gave him Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On,[c] to be his wife. And Joseph went throughout the land of Egypt.

    46 Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from Pharaoh's presence and traveled throughout Egypt.

    And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Gen. 2:9 ...my question is, why did God put the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the midst of the garden? why would God allow it?
  • Eric - In Reply on 2 Thessalonians 2 - 4 years ago
    The 10 commandments is a representation of God's character and not a burden. The Sabbath was a perpetual or an everlasting covenant between God and his children. It was there before sin, Genesis 2:1-3. By eliminating the Sabbath, you fail to acknowledge God as the creator. Because in the decalogue, He does not give any other reason for it's observance, other than that He created the heavens and earth and all that is in it, Exodus 20:8-11.

    This is why you find that the evolution theory, big bang and the theory of natural selection are worldly accepted even in churches, and people believing that the world is billions of years old.

    1 Corinthians 9:24-27

    Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain.

    And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things, Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

    I therefore so run, not as uncertainty, so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

    But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

    Luke 8:11

    "Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God."

    1 Peter 1:23

    "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever."

    Genesis 1:31

    "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day."

    Psalms 119:107

    "I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word."

    Genesis 3:14

    "And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

    Genesis 3:15

    "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

    2 Timothy 4:1

    "I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;"

    John 6:63

    "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life."

    John 20:29

    "Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed."

    1Cor 15:45

    And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

    John 10:36 Say you of him, whom the Father has sanctified, and sent into the world, You blaspheme; because I said, I am the Son of God?

    "Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God."
  • Carleton - In Reply on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    Yes, An eternal soul in knowledge of a once known relationship with the Creator without light in eternal darkness without hope is hard to grasp. God in mercy as he clothed Adam and Eve in the hope of His Son who was at the beginning of Creation made a way of escape by the grace of Love.

    Amen.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    They died spiritually. Became like us; mortal. Adam lost the closeness that he had once. It's really tender how God made them clothing to take away their fig leaves. He covered them. God felt that pain of separation too. But looking way down through history, He saw His son dying and taking away the sins of mankind on his own body.

    When we do sinful things: that pain we feel has to be taken to the Cross; so we can be restored.

    Times in the past, I'd think, "well God has me covered, no big hurry to hit my knees."

    But I learned by the silence from God, that I would do anything to restore the fellowship that bathed my soul in Light.

    Darkness hurts.
  • Adam - In Reply on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    Adam and Even didn't die? So, do you think they're still alive? Of course they died. They were immortal then after eating the fruit they became mortal and Adam died when he was 930 years old. The Bible didn't specify WHEN he would die, but he died just as God said. So, any assumption as to a timeframe is made up and not in the Bible, as the Bible never said it would be in 5 seconds, 5 minutes, hours, days, or even years. Even characters in the Bible themselves have endured huge patience in waiting on God like Abraham and Sarah. But God did exactly as he said. It just isn't necessarily within man's own arbitrary expectations of when they want things to happen.
  • Mathew thomas on Genesis 2:9 - 4 years ago
    In Genesis 2 God says not to eat from tree of knowledge or they would die. Later, when they do eat the fruit, they do not die. We know God is truth. So why did he say they would die?
  • Gary The Tractor Man - In Reply on Genesis 2 - 4 years ago
    The word Ethiopia is comprised of 2 words burnt and face so its meaning is "burnt faced" ie reddish-brown nothing derogatory about the name just the fact they were made from the reddish-brown dust of the earth.All of mankind are very beautiful if you look closely at each one and see the loving hand of our Heavenly Fathers in them.
