1 | But what makes them the same creation? | Bible general Archive 3 | mark d seyler | 182155 | ||
Hi Xina, Perhaps this will help. The account of man's creation given in Genesis 2 speaks as God were creating the first man, then the first woman. Therefore, if God created man on the 6th day, as described in chapter 1, and then chapter 2 gives us a detailed accounting of the creation of the first man, it must be the creation that took place on the sixth day. This fits well with a Hebrew style of writing that gives a summary version of events first, then goes back in and gives additional details. Our newspapers do the same thing, giving a paragraph summary at the top of the column, then filling in the details. Love in Christ, Mark |

2 | But what makes them the same creation? | Bible general Archive 3 | Tim3:16 | 182181 | ||
It is interesting to note that the Strong's Concordance shows the word for man in 1:26 as number 120, which is adam, lower case 'a' -which means, human being. Then # 121 is Adam, upper-case 'A' which is the name of the first man. Also, in 2:23 the Strong's # 376 is used for man, which is "iysh" pronounced, eesh. This is a more definite term which means a certain man, pointing to an individual. Blessings, Tim |

Greetings Tim! It is important to note that both number 120 and 121 are the same word in Hebrew (adam). Strong's mentions this in the definition for 121 but it is sort of confusing. Good post! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
