Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Genesis 1:1-31

Analysis and Annotations I. THE CREATION ACCOUNT The manner in which the book of Genesis begins leaves no doubt that it is the revelation of God. The creation account is historical truth. The question is how was it given? An answer to this question claims that the Jews obtained the account from the records of other nations concerning the origin of the universe and that they altered it according to their own religious ideas. This is an impossibility. The ancient heathen nations considered God... read more

1:26 And God said, {s} Let us make man in our {t} image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.(s) God commanded the water and the earth to bring forth other creatures: but of man he says, "Let us make..." signifying that God takes counsel with his wisdom and virtue purposing to make an excellent work above all the rest of his... read more

1:28 And God {u} blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.(u) The propagation. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 1:1-31

In our human nature is a thirst to know about origins. God has given us this nature and God supplies the answer to our desire simply and decisively in the first statement of His own revelation to mankind. He goes no further back than to the beginning of the history of the created heavens and earth. Anyone who has faith understands this, "that the worlds were formed by the word of God" (Hebrews 11:3). some may question and reason as to how God could create so tremendous a universe, but faith... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Genesis 1:1-31

CREATION OF THE WORLD CREATION OF HEAVEN AND EARTH (Genesis 1:1 ) Here are three facts. What was done? Who did it? When did it occur? Two words require explanation: “created” and “beginning.” Does the former mean that heaven and earth were created out of nothing? The word (bara, in Hebrew) does not necessarily mean that, but its peculiar use in this chapter suggests that it means that here. It occurs three times, here in (Genesis 1:1 , at the introduction of life on the fifth day, and at... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Genesis 1:26

Making, Destroying, and Saving Man Genesis 1:26 ; Genesis 6:7 ; Jeremiah 3:5 ; Luk 19:10 If you could bring together into one view all the words of God expressive of his purposes concerning man, you would be struck with the changefulness which seems to hold his mind in continual uncertainty. He will destroy, yet the blow never falls; he will listen to man no more, yet he speeds to him in the day of trouble and fear; he will make an utter end, yet he saves Noah from the flood, and plucks Lot as... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Genesis 1:26-31

The Making of Man Gen 1:26-31 There is surely no bolder sentence in all human speech. It takes an infinite liberty with God! It is blasphemy If it is not truth. We have been accustomed to look at the statement so much from the human point that we have forgotten how deeply the Divine character itself is implicated. To tell us that all the signboards in Italy were painted by Raphael is simply to dishonour and bitterly humiliate the great artist. We should resent the suggestion that Beethoven or... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Genesis 1:6-26

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. And God said, Let us pause over this verse; and in confirmation that the creation of man is the result of the Sacred Three, see Ecclesiastes 12:1 where the word Creator, (Heb. Creator's), being in the plural number, means Father, Son, and Holy... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Genesis 1:27

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Reader! mark the peculiarity of expression. Here is not, as before, a command to create, but a council is first called. The Holy Persons of the Godhead consult, as it were, before the formation of man. 'Let us make man in our image:' What image? what likeness? I desire to speak with all possible reverence while I propose the question. I do not presume to say what that image or likeness is,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Genesis 1:28-31

And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. It is deserving our attention, that God's approbation of his work at the close of it; and after the creation of man, differs from what was said before. All was said to be good; but now it is said to be very good. Was this in consequence of his love to man? Was it as beholding his creature man in his son Christ Jesus? Reader! remember, I ask it as a question: far is it from... read more
