Bible Note: Hello Merv, 1) I should have added this verse to back my reasoning: Rom 5:13 (ESV) for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. Because God had not yet given the commandment about murder Cain, though guilty of sin, it could not be counted against Cain. It had to be dealt with differently. 2) Total agreement. :-D 3) I haven't dealt with unclean being detestable to God because that is not stated until the Mosaic law. As background, I follow an historical, grammatical approach to Scripture. Basically, I look at what was said, when it was said, where it is in relation to other things being said, etc. This is why I argue so strongly that one cannot take the Mosaic law and superimpose it on anyone in Genesis. You have to look at what God revealed to his people at the moment or prior. Steve |
