Bible Question:
In Genesis 1:26, the Lord talks of creating man in our image. He refered to himself in the plural sense. Could someone explain this to me? |
Bible Answer: Greetings, nimrod; John says Jesus was present with God the Father at the creation. I would assume God the Holy Spirit was as well. So I take the plural reference to represent the completeness of the triune God. Hope this is useful. Peace and grace, Steve aka Indiana Jones |
