1 | Who did God create in Genesis 1:27-28? | Bible general Archive 2 | DocTrinsograce | 137184 | ||
The belief that the two passages you mention represent seperate creation events is called the "Two Creation Theory." It stems from the assumption that the scripture is always chronological in nature. The correct interpretation -- in my opinion -- is that Genesis 1 is a thumbnail sketch of creation. Genesis zeros in on the beginning of the God's redemptive story. I hope that helps a bit. | ||||||
2 | Who did God create in Genesis 1:27-28? | Bible general Archive 2 | Ray | 137190 | ||
Hi Doc Trinsograce, I agree with your opinion. I would say further that the first chapter of Genesis tells us about the triune God being involved in creation. The chapter talks about the things that the Spirit of God did and what He said. The chapter has a total of pronouns that is divisible by three. This is noteworthy, I believe. After this introductory first chapter, the second chapter goes on and talks about how the Lord God made earth and heaven and goes on in detail and is more chronological. Is the number of pronouns of Deity in chapter one of signifcance to you? From the heart, Ray |

Yes, I would agree. By the way, I've been meaning to ask, Ray... do you also capitalize the various versions of the pronoun "who?" | ||||||

Hi Doc Trinsograce, Good question. I'll start a new thread. Perhaps at Colossians 1:14. From the heart, Ray |
