Why, in 26, did God refer to the creation of man as follows: Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likenes...........& then in 27 says: "So God created man in HIS image, in the image of God.........
I am unclear as to whether it is an effort by a singular God or some type of reference to a group effort. Thak you you for providing clarity on this juxtaposition.
I would just like to make a little comment on your post. God, as I observed many times in the Bible, is a God of order. He creates and make everything in its likeness. However, man is the only thing God created in HIS image and also HIS likeness. See the difference? IMAGE and LIKENESS is for mankind and only LIKENESS for the animals and the plants.
This should let us know we are very special to God. Could this "our likeness" be referring to the HLOY TRINITY even though holy trinity is not in the Bible? I think so. God bless you
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made."Joh 1:1-3
"[He] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him:" Col 1:15-16
So let's just imagine the Godhead among Themselves agreeing with Each Other, "Let US..." And then God The Son executed Their plan. Each member of The Trinity is fully God: God The Father, God The Son and God The Holy Spirit; Three distinct Persons in ONE Divine Essence or Being.
God The Son, Jesus, is the revelation to mankind of the invisible God.
"And now, O Father, glorify Thou Me with Thine own self with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was."Joh 17:5
Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee; Holy, Holy, Holy! Merciful and Mighty! God in Three Persons, blessed Trinity!
Holy, Holy, Holy! All the saints adore Thee, Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea; Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee, Which wert and art, and evermore shall be.
Holy, Holy, Holy! Tho' the darkness hide Thee, Tho' the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see, Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee Perfect in power and love, and purity.
Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty! All Thy works shall praise Thy name, in earth, and sky, and sea; Holy, Holy, Holy!
Merciful and Mighty! God in Three Persons, blessed Trinity! AMEN.

Who is The Creator, according to The Scriptures?
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made."Joh 1:1-3
