Bible Question: to whom ever replyed to the question,Did God create man from dust particles or whole dirt?I'm trying to find out was it dust alone or was dust meaning dirt?Thank You fun |
Bible Answer: Dear fun: In Genesis 2:7 and 3:9 the word that is generally rendered "dust" in English Bibles is a translation of the Hebrew word aphar, meaning dust, dry earth, dirt, dry soil. Dirt is dirt. That's what God used to form man. Dirt. Dirt. Dirt. What else is there to say about dirt? Dirt is dirt is dirt. :-) --Hank |
