Genesis Chapter 2 Discussion Page 2

Geneis 2:16: And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:



Note, the Tree of Life is in the garden, and man may freely eat thereof.





GENESIS 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.



Thus, the Lord told ADAM he may not eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, and in my understanding on that day ADAM would seal his fate with death. But, this was prior to the birth of Eve. The Tree of Life was not forbidden, and also in the Garden. If there were something preventing Adam from eating of that tree, it is not stated, at least at this point. Therefore it is up to individuals to speculate as to the reasons why Adam may not have eaten of the tree of life.





GENESIS 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.





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.





Perhaps, as Adam and Eve are "one", the rules of the Fruit of the tree of knowledge also apply to Eve. For the sake of my view, let us assume that Eve is also bound by the rule applied to Adam prior to her creation.



Genesis 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.



Importantly, while the only record of God's statement comes prior to God's assertation, Eve is aware of it and feels it applies to her as well.

If I read and understand verse 7 and 8 correctly: Is there any speculation concerning out of what (or which) earth was man created from and which he was taken from to be placed in the eastern part of Eden ?

I love this book

Psalms 34:3

Sister Angie, GBY today!

Hebrews 13:15

:-)

i love the online holy bible i have so much love for god

Genesis 1:20

from here God creates all the living animals that moves on the earth and we know he present them before Adam to name them.



And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

25And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

Genesis 1 :20 day 5 God creates the sea life and Birds from the water. In Genesis 2:19 God begins to create "help mates" for Adam, He creates this time the birds of the air from the earth land. I do not believe this is a mistake or a contradiction. Could this be where God creates man's best friend like the dog, farm animals ,sheep, oxen mules, domestic animals to help man take care of the garden?

thanks for allowing me to ask this.

Love this Bible page.

Who is the prodigy women in Genesis 37

In Genesis chapter 20 we read that Sarah is in fact Abraham's half sister .

Hi Patrick. Sarah, in the Book of Genesis, was Abraham's wife. Actually, her name was Sarai (& Abraham was first known as Abram) & she was probably from the same region that Abram, his father Terah, & brothers Nahor & Haran, were from. This was a Gentile, pagan area, though we're not sure of the spiritual condition of these men at that time.

In Genesis 11:27 onwards, you can read of Sarai becoming Abram's wife, but she was infertile. And you can read their story from here on, but then in Genesis chapter 17, God establishes a covenant with Abram, that he would be a father of many nations, and that he would now be called, Abraham. As for Sarai, her name became Sarah, for she would be the mother of nations & kings of people would come from her (v16).

Who was sarah

As his counterpart

Shouldn't it say mate not meet in verse 18 ? "make him an help meet for him"

So true, Amen.!

Totally agree, I was born in 1964 and things have definitely changed, for the worse, since I was a child. My cousin, Greg, was killed, in the Army, when they found out he was gay, they hung him and the Army covered it up. yet now they allow it. seriously.! I look forward to the day I die, in fact (though not suicidal) cant wait. I pray I never deny Him if they give me a choice. I can say now I will not but then I remember what Paul did and it makes me wonder. will I be strong enough to stand for Him till the end? which is very near, only Gods knows.

Acts Ch 15 V 18 , much love in Christ .

We'll all stand before Jesus and give account for what we've done in our lives. I was born in 1951. I lived through: the Bible, Pledge of Allegiance & Ten Commandments taken OUT of schools. I saw Abortion made legal 1973. I saw gays come out of the closet; later lesbians too. College is ridiculous expensive because 25-30% of students were aborted.

I VOTE FOR THE ONE PERSON who is on GOD'S PLATFORM. The men and women you vote for MATTER TO GOD. A Platform is not malleable.

This is not going to go on another hundred years. Read SIGNS God gave us. It's happening.

I'd like to add the obvious, a life in the womb no matter how it happens is totally innocent and had no choice or doing . So there can be no justification to take an innocent life , only God can do that since all life comes from him . He is the father of all . All that is .

Many people never thought it through . What trumps an INNOCENT life ? Nothing .

Psalm 139

13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

15 My substance was NOT hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and IN THY BOOK, all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

Psalms Chapter 127

3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb IS HIS REWARD.

Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Matthew 18:10

Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 18:14. Even so IT IS NOT the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish (die).

Job 12:10. In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

Ezekiel 18:4

Behold, all souls are MINE, as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.

I have another list that's even longer. It's written truth God is involved in the lives of the unborn.

Adding a thought__

Jesus was a blessing to all of mankind inside of Mary's womb.

There are other scriptures that God called prophets from the womb. God oversaw infants in the womb, called to be leaders. We may never know how many remarkable people (male or female) whose lives were ended in the womb.

In the name of Prochoice. In Deuteronomy 30, beginning at verse 15-20, God says to Choose Life or Death. It's a very serious passage. What we choose to do is RECORDED in Heaven.

I don't have to write 2000 words to explain that Choice.

We know in our hearts that any kind of murder is recorded in Heavens books.

The idea that it's not a human life because it hast drawn a breath of air, is a LIE. So don't even try to justify it. God set forth the rule.

Life is life. Even if that life was a product of rape__God will place that child to be adopted and raised up to bless God. The arguments are not with me or anyone else. God is your adversary if you decide on a murder. Heaven and earth are the witnesses.

Come to Jesus and be forgiven if you've done this.

Hi street preacher , I have often wondered if Jeremiah Ch 2 V 34 was a reference to abortion . I'm sure that as long as women have been getting pregnant people have found ways of killing the unborn baby .

Genesis 2:7 speaks of how God created the first man not every living soul there after. He created Eve from Adams rib yet every women there after is not created from a rib are they? People love to make things up to satisfy their sinful nature and feel better so they can get through life on a daily basis continuing to sin. Study, in depth, how conceiving a child works and you will see for yourself how God created this miraculous-magical-miracle (look up "Laminin" while your at it) for we did not come from an ape. **So, sorry to say .. abortion is murder.!** (the change of one word ((jot/tittle)) can change the whole books meaning so read a KJV bible. Hebrew & Greek or any other language meanings, are totally different then the English meanings so this is where the confusion comes in because very few actually study the true meaning before spouting off lies.)

90% Americans do not recognize that child killing began way back in Old Testament.

I found history about it on YouTube, under the names of the false god the babies and children were sacrificed to.

Those ancient names are Moloch or Molech. You can read the history and see the paintings; which are hideous. The babies thrown into ovens, burned alive by satanic "priests".

The difference is now women feel empowered by "My Body, My Choice". Many stopped taking birth control when it was thought to cause strokes, physical problems, migraines, etc.

Abortion became the New Birth Control. They choose to not think that multiple abortions cause irreparable scar tissue in a womb.

Also it became the mantra for gay and lesbian groups.

Then we have to hear how difficult it is, they cannot conceive a baby naturally now.

We know that the innocent unborn souls were taken to heaven, to live there eternally with God. Whether they ever meet their mothers is another matter. Let's find peace in that. It's in Gods capable hands.

Streetpreacher

Why is it that people claim that until a baby breathes air it is not a living person? The verses that state God made us and that they are a gift from God are ignored because of Genesis 2:7.

Thank you for your patience and kindness.

A Christian.

Just Google those 2 River names

Put a comma and type BIBLE or Bible maps

where actually is the river Pison and land of Havilah located?

God was perfect Creator in this Time and Point.

All scientists seek to explain FOUR QUESTIONS: Time, Force, Action, Matter (Even Steven Hawking)

I was reading in Genesis, the Holy Spirit stops me on verse 1. He said the 4 things

TIME: in the beginning__God set TIME ticking

FORCE: The Godhead created. (Father, The Word; John 1:1) and Holy Spirit

ACTION: and the Spirit of God MOVED over

MATTER: earth, waters, atoms

God purposed, Word spoke: Light Be, and there was Light. (Purpose Spoke Light)

Carbon dating proves earth is around 2-3 billion years. SATAN was around but he's a created being. He cannot create dinosaurs, cavemen or anything other than chaos. My personal theory is: Romans 1:19-20. God put the artifacts in earth for us to find; oil for our cars, coal to be warm, fresh water for us and salted water for creatures.

We have to pray for scientists to see the Book of Romans. It's an occupation, as is archaeology, bio science, medicine. We are without excuse if we refuse to acknowledge The Godhead.

They're going to flip out when they get to heaven and see it's lighted up by the Glory of Jesus (The Son) and not a sun.

Jesus wants us to know this stuff because THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR TEACHER. All we have to do is ask Him. It's not a secret.

angels do not marry. We will be as the angels in heaven, in that we will not marry or procreate. Survivors of the entire Tribulation who have received Jesus as savior__and managed to survive alive without being marked or murdered by Antichrist will be taken to heaven in human reproducing bodies for 1000 years. They'll have to resist satans deceptions when he gets a short parole to tempt the still human people; then Satan goes to the lake of fire forever. O happy days!

These present troubles are just temporary. Let's spread the Word to the Harvest and get as many in as we can. We're going to be living with The God that purposed all of this!

Mishael

Learn to use the Commentaries. Put your scriptures in Google and then a comma, type the word 'commentaries.'

You'll learn lots reading scholars comments. Read the Bible literally tho.

2Peter 3:8, Genesis 1:27-28, Genesis 5:1-2, Psalms 90:1-6, Hebrews 4:7,

I believe you may be correct, just like the Day of The LORD, days = are also a moment of time,

Zephaniah 1:15, Ezekiel 30:3, Revelations 6:17,

Hopefully these are helpful
