1 | Chapter Break | Gen 2:4 | Lionstrong | 20663 | ||
A Note: This verse would have been a better verse at which to start chapter two. At this point Moses backs up and then goes forward. He backs up and fills in some the details of the creation week and then goes forward with this historical narrative to tell what happened after the seventh day of rest. Peace, Lionstrong |

2 | Chapter Break | Gen 2:4 | Morant61 | 20950 | ||
Comments........................................ Greetings Lionstrong! I'm not sure that I would change the chapters, but you are right about the division of thought. The phrase "these are the generations of....." is used ten times throughout Genesis. 1) 2:4 - the generations of the heavens and the earth. 2) 5:1 - the generations of Adam. 3) 6:9 - the generations of Noah. 4) 10:1 - the generations of the sons of Noah. 5) 11:10 - the generations of Shem. 6) 11:27 - the generations of Terah. 7) 25:12 - the generations of Ishmael. 8) 25:19 - the generations of Isaac. 9) 36:1 and 9 - the generations of Esau. 10) 37:2 - the generations of Jacob. Numbers 1, 3, 6, 8, and 10 are all followed by narratives. Numbers 2, 4, 5, 7, and 9 are all followed by genealogies. Of the genealogies, 2 and 5 are vertical - which trace on line of descent (both 10 generations). 4, 4, and 9 are all horizontal genealogies - traced through various children, not just the oldest. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
