창세기 2:6 KRV

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

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

Joseph Parker

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 2:5-17

But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. The tree of life, (Genesis 2:9 ) perhaps an emblem, or token of obedience, in the original covenant of works. And the tree of knowledge of good and evil; perhaps, a token that man, by disobedience, had learnt the knowledge of the good he had lost, and the evil he had taken to him. But how sweet to view, in the Person of Jesus, both the tree of life, and all... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 2:4-7

4-7 Here is a name given to the Creator, "Jehovah." Where the word "LORD" is printed in capital letters in our English Bibles, in the original it is "Jehovah." Jehovah is that name of God, which denotes that he alone has his being of himself, and that he gives being to all creatures and things. Further notice is taken of plants and herbs, because they were made and appointed to be food for man. The earth did not bring forth its fruits of itself: this was done by Almighty power. Thus grace in... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Genesis 2:4-25

Gen_2:4 Gen_3:1 The opening words of verse Gen_2:4 must be specially noted, since they indicate the second of the eleven sections into which the book is divided. As printed in our modern Bibles the chapters number 50, but ten times do we find this expression "These are the generations . . ." (with once a slight variation), showing that, as given by inspiration of God, the chapters number eleven. We will point out these inspired divisions at once, so that from the outset we may have them... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Genesis 2:4-7

The creation of Adam v. 4. These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens. The author, having given a short account of the creation, now proceeds to narrate some facts pertaining to it in greater detail. His heading is: This is the further history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, at the time when Jehovah God made earth and heavens. The earth is mentioned first in this case, as the... read more
