1 | Can we conciliate Gen.1:27 with 2:7 ? | Gen 1:27 | Timoteoarao | 208921 | ||
When I read Gen 1:26-28, I understand that it has nothing to do with Adam and Eve, because after the chapter 1 of Genesis there is another account. Genesis 2:7 says:«The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and the man became a living being.» This man is Adam of course. Eve comes only in Chapter 2:22. So, Who are the male and female created in Gen 1:27? |

Shalom Tim, Welcome to SBF!! I was going to answer this a long time ago but company came by. God works in patterns, and those patterns stay the same throughout. One such pattern that He uses to teach His kids, is repetition, repetition, and more repetition. We seem to learn more easily by this method. Sooooo, chapters 1 and 2 of the first book in the Bible would certainly have the beginnings of this pattern. For some reason, these two chapters seem to just throw people off. We read numerous times about the exploits of David, and Saul, and Jeremiah and all the others. We have 3 gospels that tell us vertually the same thing over and over again with little added tidbits here and there - and none of this seems to disturb us, it's like that's as it should be - it just seems to be the first 2 chapters in Genesis that tend to throw us a curve. God is just establishing one of His many patterns, that's all, nothing at all mysterious about it. My 2cents worth Cheri |
