Topic: The creation of man and woman | |
---|---|
In the book of Genesis, God makes land and beast. He forms the human male brain with “the dust of the Earth”. He forms the female human brain with male reproductive parts. (The translation of the original Hebrew to “rib” is a little questionable.)
As a male, my mind fits to the material world so good, it is reasonable to say that the male brain was formed with the dust of the Earth. To me “Earth dust” sounds like it may have meant Stone Age tools. He molded water, carbon, and ash just like clay, adapting it to the wisdom of the world. Much like separating iron from ore by giving it heat, God separated the male human from the male animal by giving it resources. The similarly humble background of the woman’s mind, mental life formed with physical life, is something I do not understand. This is to welcome both creationist and evolutionist explanations. |

Lane you humor me with the notion that a woman’s brain was created from male reproductive parts and most of those are below the waist line. Also God created a whole man first from the dust of the earth and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils and then he became a living being. Watching a YouTube video under the heading of “The creation of woman” and the translation of the word “rib” God created woman from Adam’s own curve or DNA. Even though God created Eve from Adam there’s another translation where she wasn’t actually the first woman created for Adam but the other woman didn’t want to be obedient to Adam like God told her to be and her name was Lilith.

In MSG:’’He created them male and female. God blessed them.’’
So, God created Adam and Eve. Man was created in the best way, a physical body, mind and spirit. God says in the Quran: "We created the human being in the best design." "and that it is He who created pairs, the male and the female, from an ejaculated drop (of sperm)" Scientifically, the chromosomes of any male is different from that of the female. If Eve was from Adam’s rib, she would have had the same genetic chromosomes. |

Good info! Thanks!
Julia, I am glad to know about this; thanks for the reference. I knew there had to be more to the picture. Lung, DNA is an awesome consideration. It connects identity with form, whereas brain connects understanding with form. |

Lane another thing I should point out is that God created Man in his own image so when you look around at other people you’re looking at God.

I think the meaning of: (in our image) is:
Man was created in the best way, a physical body, mind and spirit. Man is the most honorable of creatures. This indicates the greatness of man and his dignity with God. God created man in the best form and design, in order to worship, that is to know his Lord and build the earth. Man, by the strength of his mind, is able to worship and good deeds that lead him to eternal life without misery. The image of God is the spiritual capabilities in man, including the ability to think, and the ability to establish relationships with God, with people and with all beings. The image of God doesn't means that there is a man or prophet like God. The Quran says: “God, besides Whom there is no god; the King, the Holy, the Giver of peace, the Granter of security, Guardian over all, the Mighty, the Supreme, the Possessor of every greatness. Glory be to Lord from what they set up (with Him). There is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.” |

There’s a passage after the creation of woman that I’ve always believed and that’s found in Genesis 2 verse 24 “For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh”. Lung1954 in Genesis 1 verse 27 it does say that God created man in His own image.

Good info! Thanks! Lung, DNA is an awesome consideration. It connects identity with form, whereas brain connects understanding with form. Aside from red blood cells and cornified cells (outermost skin barrier), all other cells in the human body contain nuclear DNA. Also, all cells start with nuclear DNA. The reason for this is that DNA contains the basic code that tells each cell how to grow, function, and reproduce. https://www.wtamu.edu/~cbaird/sq/2013/08/22/why-does-every-cell-in-our-body-contain-dna/#:~:text=Aside%20from%20red%20blood%20cells,human%20body%20contain%20nuclear%20DNA. |

Lung1954 in Genesis 1 verse 27 it does say that God created man in His own image. Gen. 1 Verses 26 to 31 26Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness, to rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it.” 27So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.… https://biblehub.com/genesis/1-26.htm |

God created the Whole Universe!
God created man in His own image. Man was created from the dust of the ground and woman was created from out of the mans side rib. God created them Male and Female. Genesis Female is supposed to be man's help mate. Then later came the FALL of Man and everything changed because of Sin. Man disobeyed God by choice. Study your HOLY Bible all is in the Scriptures. Man screwed it all up. Thank God there is Hope in Jesus Christ, His son for eternal Life, when we Trust and Believe in Him for our eternal Salvation. To the Orignal Poster Men are not known to have a better Brain than women. Many Men think with their wrong head. They have two you know !! |

I agree Mr. Good Guy. Even scarier when all they have to do is claim they identify being the opposite sex and walk right into their bathroom. Really crazy world we live in!
