창세기 2:19 KRV

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Genesis 2:19

(19) Out of the ground.—The adâmâh; thus the physical constituents of the animals are the same as those of the body of man. Much curious speculation has arisen from the mistaken idea that the order here is chronological, and that the animals were created subsequently to man, and that it was only upon their failing one and all to supply Adam’s need of a companion that woman was called into being. The real point of the narrative is the insight it gives us into Adam’s intellectual condition, his... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Genesis 2:1-25

The Creator Explained By the Creation Genesis 2:2 Given the Creation, to find the Creator, at least to conjecture about Him. Given the house, to discover something about the builder of it, or the owner or the occupant. It is a large house; very well, then the man behind it, who made it, or is responsible for it, must be a man of some substance and property. It is an artistically furnished house; every piece of furniture has been set down by the hands of love just in the right place and in the... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Genesis 2:1-25

THE CREATIONGenesis 1:1-31; Genesis 2:1-25 IF anyone is in search of accurate information regarding the age of this earth, or its relation to the sun, moon, and stars, or regarding the order in which plants and animals have appeared upon it, he is referred to recent textbooks in astronomy, geology, and palaeontology. No one for a moment dreams of referring a serious student of these subjects to the Bible as a source of information. It is not the object of the writers of Scripture to impart... read more

2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto {n} Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.(n) By moving them to come and submit themselves to Adam. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 2:1-25

THE SEVENTH DAY The first three verses here are directly connected with chapter 1. "Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished." The work of the first creation occupied six days. "All the host of them" evidently refers to the innumerable host of stars and planets which are set by God in the heavens for the benefit of man on earth. Number 7 is the number of completeness, and on that day God rested from all His work. In this case only we read of His blessing the... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Genesis 2:1-25

THE GARDEN OF EDEN GOD’S SABBATH (Genesis 2:1-3 ) The first three verses of this chapter belong to the preceding as a summary of its contents. Of what day do they treat? What did God do on that day? How did He regard it? In the light of the fourth commandment, these verses seem to countenance the thought of creative days of twenty-four hours each; that is, God’s Sabbath seems to be set over against man’s Sabbath, but the two should not be confounded. The latter was made for man and fitted... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Genesis 2:1-25

Adam, Eden, and Eve Gen 2:1-3 Simple and honest is this as the speech of a little child! A child tells you things in lumps and mouthfuls, and hurries on to conclusions in a manner quite its own and not despicable. But was Moses a child? Exactly that and nothing more in book-writing. He had no forerunners to study, no models to copy, no high grammatical authorities to consult. Strange that men should be hard upon him in matters literary, when they have been so long at school and he was never... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Genesis 2:18-22

And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 1 Timothy 2:13 ; Ephesians 5:31-32 . As the apostle speaks of this as a figure, and we know that Adam was a figure of Him that was to come; doth it not suggest to us, that as the woman was formed out of the side of the man, when fallen into a deep sleep; so the church of the Lord Jesus was redeemed and issued from his pierced side, when, in the debased state of the sleep of death; he, being... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 2:18-25

18-25 Power over the creatures was given to man, and as a proof of this he named them all. It also shows his insight into the works of God. But though he was lord of the creatures, yet nothing in this world was a help meet for man. From God are all our helpers. If we rest in God, he will work all for good. God caused deep sleep to fall on Adam; while he knows no sin, God will take care that he shall feel no pain. God, as her Father, brought the woman to the man, as his second self, and a help... read more
