Genesis 2:4-5 (These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created)
(These are the generations of the heavens
and of the earth when they were created)
In Genesis
2:4-5『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, And
every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the
field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the
earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 』
God says in
Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. (2:5) Even
though the saints have the eyes of the flesh, if they look at the Word of God
with their spiritual eyes, they can understand the will of God through the
works of the earth. Rain is the word of God.
In Deuteronomy 32:1-3『Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O
earth, the words of my mouth. My
doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the
small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: Because I
will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. 』 The words of
Deuteronomy are as follows: Since the exodus people did not believe in God's
covenant before Canaan, the old man died in the wilderness for 40 years. And
this is what God says through Moses to a new man born in the wilderness. When
you enter Canaan, you are obeying God's Word (the law). The contents of
Deuteronomy 31 are the explanation of the law. This is what Moses said in
chapter 32 after Moses had explained it to chapter 31. It is the expression of
dew and rain that God told the people to keep well. The fact that it did not
rain was not given the word of God to the world, because there was no man to
cultivate. There is no one who can hear the word of God, plow the earth,
realize it, and obtain the fruit of eternal life.
The meaning
of cultivation (Abad) is expressed in John 6:27-29.『Labour not for
the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting
life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father
sealed. Then said they
unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them,
This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 』 Working
(Abad) is cultivating. No one to cultivate means that there is no one to work
for eternal life.
『And
every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the
field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the
earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 』(2:5),
God gave seed-bearing trees and vegetables. The phrase "no vegetation, no
vegetables" means that there are no seeds in the fields or fields. The
saying that there is no man to cultivate is based on the premise that a man to
cultivate comes. 『But there went up a mist from the
earth, and watered the whole face of the ground』(2:6)
The fog was
translated as cloud in Job 38. Mist here symbolizes the water (river) of the
earth. The ground of the whole earth refers to the ground and is the soil that
God used to make people. In other words, the state in which the ground is wet
with water is called "adama." In Genesis 2:10『And a river went out of Eden to
water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. 』
Man
cultivates the earth, and God made Adam out of dirt. The soil is adamada. 『And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (2:7) God made man from the dust (apar) of the soil (adama). Water
is needed to make the soil (dust). The human body is mostly made up of water.
If there is no water, it dies. In other words, without the word of God, it is
the dead without the life of heaven. When water is removed from the soil
(adama), it becomes dust (apar).
If 100% of
the water disappears from this land, the earth called soil will disappear. All
the ground becomes dust and disappears. So, you can see that the land is formed
from water. When the firmament was created, land was created. The ground is
formed because it is divided into water above and below the firmament, and God
says to gather water under the firmament into one place. In Genesis 1:2,
"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face
of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters』
It is a land
without shape. That is, it is dust. The dust is tangled in water and looks like
muddy water. The ground was revealed because God brought water (muddy water)
under the firmament into one place. It is like filtering muddy water to become
soil.
In 2 Peter
3:5, 『For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the
word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water
and in the water: 』. Genesis 2:7 『And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. In this
word, it means that the earth was made by water. The source of all things in
the Bible is water. That is, the source of all things is the word of God. In
other words, nothing was created except by Jesus Christ, the Word (Logos). In
John 1:3, “All things were made by him; and without him
was not any thing made that was made. 』
The ground is
called Eretsu, and the soil is called Adama. Before becoming Adam (human), dust
(apar) was combined with water to become soil (adama), and Adam was created.
Human beings are like dust. God's Word (water) got into human form by getting
into something like dust. It is that human beings without the word (water) of
God are dust-like beings without even shapes. If there is no water on the
ground, it is no longer the ground. The land must always have water. Without
water on the ground, life cannot grow. Since all sources are God's Word,
without the Word of God, there is no true life. Without Jesus Christ, there is
no life, so we become dead.
In Colossians 1:16-17『For by him were all things created, that are in heaven,
and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or
dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and
for him: And
he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 』 In 1 Corinthians 8:6, 『But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things,
and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by
him. The words of Genesis 1-2 indicate that the source of all things was
created as water, and that water is the Word and Jesus Christ.
The reason
God created the world was to send someone to cultivate. God sends the spirits
that have sinned in the kingdom to the world, so the people who have entered
the soil are the people who will cultivate the earth. God molded the earth out
of water and made a human form. However, in the early stages, there is no life.
So, when he breathed vitality (spirit) into his nose, he became a living thing.
He became a living thing with the soil, but he could not cultivate the word of
God. Because it was a soul without the Word of God. So God created the Garden
of Eden to eat the fruits of the tree of life and to cultivate and protect the
Garden of Eden.
