Genesis Chapter 2 Discussion Page 30

@Dolores

Genesis Chapter 2 mentioned about the TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND "EVIL" ( Genesis 2:9,17). But you are talking "all about Lucifer" on your comment dated 9/20/2013 at 12:19pm WITHOUT stating from which Bible Chapters and Verses you quoted them. We cannot verify your statements if they are TRUE or NOT unless you sight your references from the Bible. I gave you all my references so you could check on them based on your discussion about Lucifer on your comment dated 9/08/2013 at 7:51am. I would like to give you my response to your comment after you stated here the Chapters and Verses from which you based all your explanations. For the sake of discussion about "EVIL" as mentioned in Genesis 2 Verses 9 and 17: It is written in Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things" to which I based my conclusion that all EVIL created by God from the beginning was created as EVIL right from the START and all GOOD created by God from the beginning was created as GOOD right from the START. Therefore LUCIFER was created as EVIL right from the START and right from the BEGINNING because he is the father of it as stated in John 8:44, "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it".

. How can Genesis 2: 18-22 relate to Phil. 4:6 ?

@Rosalina

Lucifer is one of three archangels mentioned in Scripture. He was created by God just as all angels were, but his role was different from the other angelic hosts. Lucifer was referred to as the 'covering angel.' Just as the cherubim covered the mercy seat of the Ark of the Covenant, Lucifer was established by God to be the angel of worship, one whose ministry surrounded the heart of heaven. Lucifer was created to dwell eternally in the throne room of heaven, in the very presence of God ( Ezekiel 28:14). John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. God is a spirit! God did not have sex to reproduce...

Gen.2:19 God who created the cattle, every animal, every bird allowed Adam to name them. God did not attempt to change what Adam called them he excepted each name.This truly amazes me. God who his all knowing would allow Adam to name the wildlife, of his creation. Often times we do not accept from one another suggestions, ideas, we should learn from God to allow others to name a ministry, or to implement an idea without
rebuke.

yah very interesting thinking, but God's word says that God made man in His own image. and on the completion of seventh day He made Adam and then Eve and we are descendant of Adam.

So did God create man then Adam and Eve?

Well l read every day for some reason 2:1struck my eye.all the host of them and I had to lookup the meaning of the word it's good to have a dictionary.and now I know glory be to god and all the host of them

My respond to Delories's Genesis Chapter 2 comment on 9/08/2013, 7:51am: In Matthew 3:7 and Mark 1:11 God said that Jesus is His beloved Son. In Isaiah 14:12 the one fallen from heaven was Lucifer, son of the morning. In Job 1:6 it's written that the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. But it's not written there that Satan is among God's son. Now in Romans 8:14 it says, "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God". Therefore, God need not a wife and have sex like human beings to make children. In fact in Matthew 3:9 Jesus says, "And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham". So for God to create His own children is by spirit and not by flesh.

@ Lucy's where are you getting that satan was Gods son? The devil was a falling Angel who thought he was better and was jealous of God. No where in the King James Bible does it mention anything you wrote in your comment. I know Mormonism teaches God was married and had sex with his wife and brought forth children, but no where in the bible does it say that.

according to verse 9 of chapter 2 i want know what could have happen if GOD has created only tree of knowing what is good without evil

Christopher,verse 7 tells us that god formed a body from the matter of the earth,breathed life into that body (by means of holy spirit),and the result was life-"he became a living soul".Regarding the end check out Ps 146:3,4,Eccl 9:5,6,10. Is God happy about that and going to leave it that way? take a look at Job 14:13-15

There were two trees in the garden, 1-the tree of life the 2-the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and Satan was not the tree, Satan is on of the sons of God who came jealous of man, who God loved, just like we become jealous today over stupid stuff. Read on and you will find out that God himself had sons and those sons came and took wives of whom they chose and had kids. So geneology has taught us that we are direct descendents of God, even after the flood.

Men do not believe that they are the image of God, God has two eye, one nose, one mouth, two ears.

Remain like children in not judging others.

I think it means this:
Eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil will lead us to 'know'(judge others) if you eat of knowledge -knowing what is good or evil, then we die. We become judges of each other, we view something/someone as good or evil. So remain "ignorant' non-judgemental)of each other in order to live. Mind your business.

Adam was a full grown man placed in a full grown garden on a newly created full grown earth. Everything he would need was there. Carbon dating would be incorrect if created full
grown or with the appearance of age. The text says further that the days had evening and morning indicating 24 hour periods not millions of years.

Beautiful.

I love the part when God breaths into the nostrils of man and BANG.. Man springs to life a spirit imparted from god to give life. There is no mention of a Soul but of the Spirut or Holy Spirit. Man was created molded from the hands of God and life was breathed into him. Amazing.. Inspiring thought.. This raises hundreds of questions of what happens unto the spirit at Death.. I welcome any response concerning what happens to us at our end here on Earth..

who is the tree of life? well Christ is. and the tree of knowledge of good and evil was Satan himself. and the Hebrew word for eat is partake

The word rib means side according to bro. Jimmy s.

If it states in Numbers 23:19 God does not lie yet, this verse says if they eat the fruit they will surely die that day. What kind of death was it?
By eating it, it caused disobedience, therefore rebellion & sin. Meaning satan had access to their lives to rob, kill & destroy

To ... and Zarus. Genesis was not written in linear form chapter 1 is a summary of events and from where it says 'These are the generations of the heavens...' that is the detailing. Adam was created on the 6th day then God created the animals for his companionship and when there was no adequate helper (which God already knew duh, he does that a lot) Eve was created. So when that was done God says dude on the third day I created these plants which comprise the garden, herbs for veg and fruits for meat, tend to it.

vs 5-6 show that there was no rain on the earth just because there was no any person to cultivate the land. Gen 1 tells about God's plan while Gen 2:7 tells us about achievement of God's plan of creating a man

It is a glorious day to recall the glory of God's creations,especially the celestial system (ps.19:1).It is worth remembering the God of Glory on this day by resting from our worldly p***ions.

Wait,
Genesis 1:11-12 and 1:26-27 Trees came before Adam.
Genesis 2:4-9 Trees came after Adam.

Genesis 1:20-21 and 26-27 Birds were created before Adam.
Genesis 2:7 and 2:19 Birds were created after Adam.

Genesis 1:24-27 Animals were created before Adam.
Genesis 2:7 and 2:19 Animals were created after Adam.

Genesis 1:26-27 Adam and Eve were created at the same time.
Genesis 2:7 and 2:21-22 Adam was created first, woman sometime later.

Notice how God (Yahweh) creates the Garden of Eden AFTER creating the rest of the human race in the previous chapter. Adam and Eve weren't the first humans on Earth, Adam was created to tend the garden, and Eve was there to keep him company.

it is a great book to read, the book history, is good book.

Yes, the calendar has had several changes, but always in dates(numbers), never in days. The 7th day is the same as it always has been and God santified the 7th day (set it apart for Holy use) He kept the 7th day Sabbath and gave it to man long before the 10 commandments were given.

The tree was only a symbol of obedience, Man chose to eat and disobey their creator.The part I concentrated on was that Adam did not die in the literal day that he ate from the tree thus allowing a day to mean a period of time

I like this verse. To me it means the couple become each other's closest friend and confidant. They can trust each other. Scripture is handling the mother in laws right here! LoL The wife and husband become each others counsel and they choose together the things of their household.
