AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 3:18 "Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; And you shall eat the plants of the field. |
Bible Question: I have heard some people say that these plants were not created until the ground was cursed, but it seems more like they just began to thrive after the ground was cursed. So, which is it? |
Bible Answer: Greetings, The passsage could go either way. The point of the passage is that Mankind will have to work for their food instead of obtaining it easily by pulling it from a tree. They'll have to work the land, plant the seeds, grow the plants, and harvest the crop. In addition, the ground won't cooperate, but will be growing "thorns and thistles", or in other words ... weeds.
