Download or read book The Universal Story written by Dru Johnson and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The opening chapters of Genesis tell the story of how humans relate to the world— and to God. Genesis 1-11 is a parade of humanity's stories intertwined with the most intriguing subjects wrestled with today: the beginning of the cosmos, the nature of humanity, family, sex, deceit, death, murder, mass murder, ecology, agriculture, urbanization, and more. In The Universal Story, Dru Johnson shows how Genesis 1-11 is written in a way that informs the rest of biblical history—including the exodus, the kings of Israel, the exile, the Gospels, and early church. Genesis 1-11 presents a story of humanity that seeks to explain the background of every human endeavor. It is the universal story—the story of stories—because it is a story about how all of these things came to be the way the Hebrews understood them to be. These bizarre and ancient stories frame the story of God and His plan for earth and humanity.

Download or read book Genesis 1 11 written by Jan Christian Gertz and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genesis 1-11 considers the origins of the world and how it is ordered, the origin of humanity and the origins of civilization. It is an expression of the basic conviction, widespread in antiquity, that everything present and everything future received its essence in the beginning. In this sense, the biblical Primeval History is less an explanation of the origin of the world than primarily an attempt to understand humanity's experience with itself and its environment in an interpretive way. At the center of this reflection in exemplary narratives, in addition to natural history, genealogy and geography, is humanity in its manifold relationships with its fellow humanity, with non-human Creation, and with God. The commentary offers readers inside and outside the field a clearly understandable synthesis of previous research and places the Primeval History within the context of the literature of the ancient Near East.

Download or read book Genesis 1 2 3 written by Dwight O. Troyer and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since I have been studying the Bible I have had a desire to prove to the Jewish people and the rest of the world that Jesus is the Anointed One. No other person fulfills the interwoven complexities of the living Word of God. When I first started to study Genesis I only had an inward intuition that there was more to the scriptures about creation than I was being taught. Much of what I was taught in time was filtered, stretched, and shaken; some of what I believed to be true was thrown on the discarded pile of unscriptural religious knowledge. Kenneth Hagin used this story to prove a spiritual point. Watching cows graze in a field, he noticed occasionally one would get a stick in his mouth along with all the tender grass. The cow would simply spit out the sticks and eat the good stuff. I have eaten of the good stuff and grazed on the Word of God in Genesis chapters 1-2-3. I have spit out my share of sticks. Sometimes it is tough to "Spit out the stick," when one is comfortable with what one believes. Christians tend to be close-minded from the mere thought of digging a little deeper. Intellects have conquered the territory of creation and have represented the Christian believers to be something from the dark ages of illiteracy. I hope that one reads this book with the intent to eat the hay and spit out the sticks of disagreement, knowing that my heartfelt desire is to bring fresh insight to a dead and dying world so that Holy Spirit will prune the vines of your minds and all that read will go forth with boldness and bring forth more fruit for the Kingdom of God. In doing this all of mankind will surely know that Jesus is Lord!

This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes, Critical and Practical on the Book of Genesis, Vol. 2 of 2: Designed as a General Help to Biblical Reading and Instruction On the whole, we regard this as a ve ry rational and plausible hypothesis, and one that derives no little support from the place where the scene of the trans action was laid. If the design of the command had been simply a trial of Abraham's faith, it is not easy to see why he should have been required to go to such a distance to perform an act that might as well have been perform ed anywhere else. But when We find him directed to go to the site of Jerusa lem, and to rear his altar, and offer up his sacrifice, on or near the very spot where the Saviour was afterwards actu ally crucified, We cannot well avoid see ing in the incident. A designed typical and prophetical character. But a fuller view of the event in its various bear ings will be gained from the explana tions that follow.
