Genesis 1-3

  • 1:26-27, Man was made on 6th day - v26 rule 1:- dominion over fish and birds. V28 be fruitful and multiply.
  • 2:7, man created from dust, Eden created after in v8. V9, tree of life + tree of the knowledge to good and evil.
  • 2:22, woman created
  • 3:3, did Eve not remember God's closely? If she did, would serpent not successfully tempt? Or did Adam just misinformed Eve God's commandment in 2:15? Who is it to blame?
  • 3:5, the heart to be like God? Is there a such a value for rebellion? (i.e. is there a need to rule in a perfect world?)
  • 3:19, Consequences of rebelling against God: affirmation of death, serious about what he said about death in
  • 3:21, And the LORD God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them. Once heard from a sister in Christ who learnt from BSF that this is the first ever form of sacrifice: God killing the first animal for our Sin, becoming the first-born to be killed to remember our sin.
  • 3:22, God casted them out to prevent Adam from eating tree of life. Did God not intend us to live forever? Or only not intend after we have knowledge of good and evil? In the ideal situation where they had/won't sin against God, would Adam and Eve have one day found the tree of life and lived on forever? What happened if they first ate from the tree of life, and then ate from tree of knowledge?
  • Why didn't he give us eternal life right from the beginning in the first place when everything was perfect?
