Genesis 2:4--Such is the story of heaven and earth when they were created. When Yahweh made earth and heaven-

Beginning here in Genesis 2:4, we can see the story of what all Yahweh did (Genesis 1:1-1:23). Yet, we read where Yahweh turns his focus on the earth and heaven.

Genesis 2:5-6;
-when no shrub of the field was yet on earth and no grasses of the field had yet sprouted, because Yahweh had not sent rain upon the earth and there was no man to till the soil, but a flow would well up from the ground and water the whole surface of the earth-

We see Yahweh giving the whole surface of the earth a good soaking with water, apparently Yahweh could have sent rain, but chose to cause a flow to well up from the ground to do the watering. After all, in Genesis 1:20-23, we just went through 4 or so billion years in this fifth a day; it is called a day, because it happen before Genesis 2:4, remember we are learning from the earth and heaven. The soil on the earth in them days, after all the volcanos, meteors slamming into the ground, vault lines and riffs causing the soil to be turned over and over. If all that were not enough, big trees, big plants; big and small animal life; all of that got churned up, like a farmer churning up his ground. A man could have a lot of fun growing stuff in soil like that; all it needed was a little water. The beginning of the earth and heaven story, the beginning of the sixth day, this is where we find ourselves. The grasses of the field, how tuff is this vegetation, could some of those grasses of the field have been around since the third a day, while the earth was in the first heaven.

Genesis 2:7;
-Yahweh formed man from the dust of the earth. He blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.

Interesting how Yahweh blew into the nostrils of what Yahweh just formed from the dust of the earth, a man, having the breath of life, oxygen in the air being carried through his blood, as he breathes the air. We also see that this man is the only living being alive, with this breath life. What about the caveman in the fifth a day, didn’t they breath the air, oxygen went through their blood as they breath the air, they kinda look like man in a way. Yet, Yahweh shows a very special interest in this man; this is the only one Yahweh formed from the dust of the earth. Who knows about the beginning of the caveman; but this man was the only living being alive on the earth.

Genesis 2:8-9;
Yahweh planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and placed there the man whom he had formed. And from the ground Yahweh caused to grow every tree that was pleasing to the sight and good for food, with the tree of life in the middle of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and bad.

From this spot where this man was formed from the dust, it is interesting the distance Yahweh placed between this spot, and where Yahweh planted a garden in Eden, in the east. For Yahweh to be so close to what he just formed is odd; Yahweh has a kind of life within himself that generates light, and Yahweh’s body is a substance called spirit. The light that life Yahweh has within himself would kill that man, their is no way for Yahweh’s body to contain that generated light. Yet Yahweh is up close and personal with this man; perhaps Yahweh was in some kind of Kavod, shielding this generated light; Yahweh used a Kavod, when he led the Israelites out of Egypt. Yahweh placed there the man whom he had formed, their in that garden he planted, and from the ground Yahweh caused to grow every tree that was pleasing to the sight and good for food; as all these trees grew taller, this man would not have seen those two unique trees growing in the middle of this garden.

Genesis 2:10-14;
A river issues from Eden to water the garden, and it then divides and becomes four branches. The name of the first is Pishon, the one that winds through the whole land of Havilah, where the gold is. (The gold of that land is good; bdellium is there, and lapis lazuli.) The name of the second river is Gihon, the one that winds through the whole land of Cush. The name of the third river is Tigris, the one that flows east of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

We can go back to the spot where Yahweh formed that man, and look at the vastness of Eden, their is a lot of distance between that spot and the garden of Eden. The river alone issuing from Eden to water the garden, then that river divides and becomes four rivers; yet this man Yahweh formed was the only living being alive in Eden, with breath life. To have been able to have seen that river running through Eden through that man’s eyes from that spot, before Yahweh placed him in that garden in Eden, in the east; what a Kodak moment.

Genesis 2:15-17;
Yahweh took the man and placed him in the garden of Eden, to till it and tend it. And Yahweh commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you are free to eat; but as for the tree of knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat of it; for as soon as you eat of it, you shall die.”

Yahweh took the man, like Yahweh had a purpose for this man; and Yahweh placed this man in the garden of Eden, to till it and tend it. But before this man tilled anything or tended anything, Yahweh commanded the man; the only living being alive on the earth, living in a garden in Eden itself, but their is a hitch. The innocence and ignorance of this man, perhaps Yahweh is protecting the man with this command, this man didn’t need to know why that tree is their, just don’t eat off it; so Adam wonders around, checking out this garden.

Here we can see, that a man with breath life was on the earth, this man was the only living being with breath life on the earth at that time.

While Adam and Chawah were the first two humans with souls, and therefore consciences, the earth was still populated with other men and women, as is evidenced by Cain's complaint that everyone who saw him would kill him (Genesis 4:14). It is my personal understanding that these other humans were probably highly intelligent, as men are today. Being without conscience, however, they would likely have been extremely ferocious (a requirement for survival) and territorial, brutish and prone to violence. I see that as one reason why Yahuwah took Adam and placed him into the protective enclosure of Eden.

I have no proof of what I am about to suggest, but it seems reasonable. When the Scripture tells us the first time that Yahuwah created man out of the dust of the earth, I believe that is when Homo Sapien appeared on the earth. Modern man did not, according to my theory, evolve from apes. Earlier versions may have, but not homo sapien. Yahuwah created him special.

But that first man was not Adam, because his mate was also made straight from the dust according to the record. So the species homo sapien was still little more than a highly intelligent animal, capable of forming family units and tribes, making semi-sophisticated tools and weapons, hunting intelligently in packs, etc. It wasn't until Yahuwah singled out Adam that man gained a soul.

That is how I understand it. I could be wrong.

With that in mind, it seems to me that there would have been no way to distinguish Adam from any other man in the world at that time, for that which made him unique was not a visible trait at all. That is why Yahuwah had to make Adam's wife from Adam himself, for those outside the protective enclosure of Eden lacked the capacity to know Yahuwah.

I have heard it said that a man has one less rib on one side than on the other, and that this supports the Scriptural record that Chawah was made from one of Adam's ribs. I would be curious to know if the fossilized remains of men before the time of Adam's creation show that early men had an equal number of ribs on each side. Does anyone know?

I see no evidence that Adam wasn't the first man. As for Cain, they must have had many other children that were adult also. They lived thousands of years at that time didn't they?

= Such is the story of heaven and earth, when they were created.= from Genesis 1:1-2:3, yet here in Genesis 2:4, we have Yahweh turning his focus on the earth and heaven =When Yahweh made earth and heaven= The sixth day spoken of in the story of Genesis 2:4 of heaven and earth, does indeed harmonize into the story about to be told, in Genesis 2:4 of when Yahweh made earth and heaven. The story of the beginning of this sixth day begins in Genesis 2:5, but their are a lot of story’s about this sixth day being told; their are a lot of concepts, much too speculative to be taken seriously. Creationists believe that the biological similarities between various species, are due to a common Designer, who designed similar functions for similar purposes in all of the various forms of life, from the simplest to the most complex. Evolutionists believe that the biological similarities between species, are evidence of common ancestry between all forms of life. Their is Gradualism of transitional fossils, how one transitional fossil gave rise to another, and trying to understand why the stages should be favored by natural selection; Darwin and his Origin of Species; the phylogenetic tree, these are strong evidence of evolution. Yet, in Genesis 2:5, here begins the story, a story not really long ago, 6 or 7 thousand years, more or less; about a time in our history, when their was nothing alive, breathing the air, for what used to breath the air, had already been wiped out. It is a fact, in Genesis 2:5, their is nothing alive breathing the air!

Even the reasonings about the earth was still populated with other men and woman before Genesis 2:7, reasoning they were highly intelligent, without conscience, extremely ferocious and brutish; in their reasonings, coming to the conclusion why Yahweh took the man, and placed him into the protective enclosure of Eden; nothing was alive to breath the air, Genesis 2:5, nothing alive.

Scripture implies they had no childer when the left the garden. Seth was their third son, and the event in question took place before his birth. You could never prove that they had more.

So, then, we might as well tear the entire first chapter of Genesis out of our copy of the Scriptures, right? Pouncing on a single verse to the exclusion of all the information contained in the paragraphs and chapters before and after it is not the beat way to arrive at the truth. IMHO.

Well Yahweh knew there would be others so that is probably what He was referring to when he talked of others harming Cain I would think. I will look into this.

I thought I was using the first chapter of Genesis;

The story of the sixth day in Genesis, their are two different stories being told about this sixth day; and yet, both these stories do harmonize together. In the first chapter of Genesis, is the story describing what is happening at the end of the sixth day. After this first story in Genesis about the sixth day has been told, Yahweh takes his rest on the seventh day. In the second chapter of Genesis, is the story describing what is happening at the beginning of the sixth day. Some understand this story of chapter one of Genesis, as the beginning of the sixth day; this understanding has led to a lot of different concepts, too much speculation to be taken seriously. Creationists believe that the biological similarities between various species, are due to a common Designer, who designed similar functions for similar purposes in all the various forms of life, from the simplest to the most complex. Evolutionist believe that the biological similarities between species, are evidence of common ancestry between all forms of life. Darwin and his Origin of Species, the Phylogenetic Tree, these are strong evidence of evolution. But the story of chapter one of Genesis is about the last of the sixth day, not the beginning.

Genesis 2:5-6 = When no shrub of the field was yet on earth and no grasses of the field had yet sprouted, because Yahweh had not sent rain upon the earth and there was no man to till the soil, but a flow would well up from the ground and water the whole surface of the earth.

To my astonishment, their are many who will not except the fact, that their was nothing alive in the beginning of the sixth day. As the fifth day comes to an end, how that fifth day ended, who knows; but we clearly see, as the sixth day begins, that fifth day must have had some bad days, for nothing alive, got out alive. As the sixth day begins, a flow would well up from the ground and water the whole surface of the earth; who knows how long their was no rain sent, before the surface of the earth got this refreshing drink of water.

Genesis 2:7 = Yahweh formed man from the dust of the earth. He blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.

To my astonishment, many will not except the fact that this man is the first living being alive, in the beginning of the sixth day. Their are some who also want to bring the story of heaven and earth in chapter one of Genesis, into the beginning of the sixth day, not excepting, that what Yahweh created in this man was at the end of the sixth day, before Yahweh took his rest on the seventh day. Two stories, one story tells the ending of the sixth day, the other story tells the beginning of the sixth day, but before both these stories harmonize together, we have one man, a living being with breath life, oxygen going through his blood as he breathes the air, nothing created in this man, yet.

Cool stuff.

Here's what I'm trying to say, this is like part one of story, cool stuff.

Genesis 2:8-14 = Yahweh planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and placed there the man whom he had formed. And from the ground Yahweh caused to grow every tree that was pleasing to the sight and good for food, with the tree of life in the middle of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and bad. A river issues from Eden to water the garden, and it then divides and becomes four branches. The name of the first is Pishon, the one that winds through the whole land of Havilah, where the gold is.

The vastness of Eden, to have been able to have seen that river running into the garden through that man’s eyes from that spot, before Yahweh placed him in the east, what a Kodak moment, all this fertile land, Eden. It is interesting, before this man can become a living being, Yahweh has to protect this man from the life, that Yahweh has within himself. Yahweh’s body is not what is going to kill this man, the light this life generates, Yahweh’s body is unable to contain this; it is that light or the glory of it, this is what is going to kill this living being. What is Yahweh’s body composed of, of a subsistence called spirit. It is to my astonishment, many say that Yahweh’s body is what makes Yahweh alive; no, it is the life Yahweh has within his body = John 5:26-For as the Father has life in himself, even so he has given to the son also to have life in himself. = this life is what makes Yahweh’s body of spirit alive. It is the misunderstanding of this body of spirit Yahweh has, that has led many to, mind binding what is taught. Yahweh’s body cannot contain that light or glory of that life; this life Yahweh has, it just shines right through his body. Could Yahweh have had used a Kavod, but different from the one Yahweh used, when he led the children of Israel out of Egypt. It is interesting that Yahweh has to use cherubs.

On to part two, cool stuff.

NN11,
What? I don't understand where you are getting your conclusions from, where does everything die? And dude, cavemen on day 5... really? You might try reading YY especially the Genesis Book. This will certainly give you a new perspective on Genesis.

Here's the story so far, I am always trying to grow, get it better; but do youin see how the end of the fifth day is running into the beginning of the sixth day, that fifth day is a trip. See how the animals are brought into the storyline at the end, two stories telling one story.

The story of the sixth day in Genesis, their are two different stories being told about this sixth day; and yet, both these stories do harmonize together.

Could Yahweh have had used a Kavod, but different from the one Yahweh used, when he led the children of Israel out of Egypt. It is interesting that Yahweh has to use cherubs.

Part two like, needs work;
The vastness of Eden, but we also see that Yahweh planted a garden in Eden, in the east. We see Yahweh placed this man, the only living being alive breathing air in this garden, and Yahweh caused to grow every tree that was pleasing to the sight and good for food. As these trees are growing around this man, we see this man’s innocence as he stands in awe; and yet the man’s ignorance of the two unique trees growing in the middle of the garden.

Genesis 2:15-17 = Yahweh took the man and placed him in the garden of Eden, to till it and tend it. And Yahweh commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you are free to eat; but as for the tree of knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat of it; for as soon as you eat of it, you shall die.”

This time Yahweh took the man and placed him in the garden of Eden, to till it and tend it; together, Yahweh and this man are going to grow this man’s food supply. As this man was getting ready to look around for a shovel, Yahweh commanded this man not to eat off one of the trees in this garden, of every tree of the garden, freely eat; but not off one tree, for as soon as you eat of it, you shall die. Yet, this man knew that together with Yahweh, it will be alright; as the man started looking for a shovel.

Genesis 2:18-20 = Yahweh said, “It is not good for man to be alone; I will make a fitting helper for him.” And Yahweh formed out of the earth all the wild beasts and all the bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that would be its name. And the man gave names to all the cattle and to the birds of the sky and to all the wild beasts; but for Adam no fitting helper was found.

As Adam was looking around for a shovel, Yahweh brings all these animals just formed out of the earth with breath life, to Adam. The look on this Adam’s face must have had been something to see, all the time Adam and Yahweh sent together, as Adam named these living creatures. Yet, no fitting helper was found for Adam.

Genesis 2:21-25 = So Yahweh cast a deep sleep upon the man; and, while he slept, he took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that spot And Yahweh fashioned the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman; and he brought her to the man. Then the man said, “This one at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. This one shall be called Woman, for from man was she taken.” Hence a man leave his father and mother and clings to his wife, so that they become one flesh. The two of them were naked, the man and his wife, yet they felt no shame.

When Adam woke up, he saw Yahweh bring this woman to him, love at first sight; soon they were walking around the garden, gazing into one another’s eyes, as the animals were coming up to them. As time went on, Adam and his wife saw something that they were both in awe of.

Genesis 1:24-25 = Yahweh said, “Let the earth bring forth every kind of living creature: cattle, creeping things and wild beasts of every kind and cattle of every kind, and all kinds of creeping things of the earth.” And Yahweh saw that this was good.

Everything is now alive on the earth, on a worldwide scale; everything! What little bit Adam and his wife saw of all this going on around them, both of them must have been in awe of all this, as Yahweh was saying and doing all this from the garden. Yahweh also does something else, very unique.

Genesis 1:26-30 = And Yahweh said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. They shall rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, the cattle, the whole earth, and all the creeping things that creep on earth.” And Yahweh created man in his image, in the image of Yahweh he created him; male and female he created them. Yahweh blessed them and Yahweh said to them, “Be fertile and increase, fill the earth and master it; and rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, and all the living things that creep on earth.” Yahweh said, “See, I give you every seed-bearing plant that is upon all the earth and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit; they shall be yours for food. And to all the animals on land, to all the birds of the sky, and to everything that creeps on earth, in which there is the breath of life, I give all the green plants for food.” And it was so.

Did Yahweh create a soul.
