The Word Diet: Week 1 (Genesis 1-11)Sample

DAY TWO: GENESIS 2
This chapter begins with the end of the first account of Creation: God’s rest from His creative work. As J.B. Phillips notes: “The revelation of God in Nature and the Bible is that He is never in a hurry. Long preparation, careful planning and slow growth, would seem to be leading characteristics of spiritual life.” Then, the second account of Creation is our intro to Adam & Eve and God’s relationship with them. (He is called “Yahweh” here—another prominent name for God, emphasizing his desire for relationship.) From this passage, reflect on what we learn about humans and about God.
