Genesis 1:26 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 1:26

24 Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so.

25 And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

26 Then God said, ^a“Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; ^blet them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over¹ all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

27 So God created man ^ain His own image; in the image of God He created him; ^bmale and female He created them.

28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, ^a“Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and ^bsubdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that¹ moves on the earth.”

29 And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; ^ato you it shall be for food.

30 Also, to ^aevery beast of the earth, to every ^bbird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is¹ life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so.

31 Then ^aGod saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
