INTRODUCTION TO THE HEBREW BIBLE

MODULE 2: SESSION 9: What the Prophets Say About the Bible’s Origin

Genesis 1 and 2 relates to one another in such a way that both of them explains the creation of heaven and earth and everything in it. The Genesis 1 acts as a portrait, depicting what is going to happen, in fact it is a pictorial presentation or a blueprint of what is going to happen while Genesis 2: 4 going forward is the reality of what happened in Genesis 1. In nutshell Genesis 1 accomplishes the blueprint of Genesis 1 by putting or setting things in motion.
