1 | Tim...? | Gen 2:1 | Morant61 | 58558 | ||
Greetings Deb! Allow me to touch upon each verse you mentioned. 1) Gen. 2:1 - This one threw me for awhile, since I wasn't sure what you were asking. If I understood you correctly, you were asking if we were included in the 'hosts' of heaven. The answer would be 'no'. The term 'host' in this context simply refers to all of the component parts necessary for the heavens and the earth. Things like 'air', 'water', ect..., would be included in this term. But, the term 'host' does not refer to every single person who has ever lived. 2) Gen. 2:2 - Heb. 4 discusses the spiritual rest promised to God's people. 3) Gen. 2:3 - I would say that He at least 'rested' or 'ceased' the creative work He had been doing. But, we know that He does other kinds of work all the time. 4) Gen. 2:4 - There are some varying opinions, but I would agree that v. 4 goes with what follows. 5) Gen. 2:5 - If I have understood your reasoning correctly, this may be what is causing you some confusion. Beginning at Gen. 2:4, God retells the creation account, but this time with more detail about the creation of man. So, Gen. 2:4ff is not another creation account, but simply a fuller accounting of Gen. 1. So, I would say that we are not still in the 6th day. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | Tim, more help please?? | Gen 2:1 | coffee | 58560 | ||
Thankyou Tim! 2:1 Your note on the meaning of 'host' was interesting and quite possibly the key for me here, so I will further explore that one. 2:2 I agree with you here. 2:3 God doing other kinds of work all the time was part of my argument for saying that we may very well still be in the 6th day, ie as He has not yet rested. Does that make sense? I need you to test my thinking here - if that is alright. 2:5 Yep, I agree with you here. This starts a more detailed account of day 6, but Tim where does this account end? Thankyou so much for your help, deb |
