20
At pinanganlan ng lalake ang lahat ng mga hayop, at ang mga ibon sa himpapawid, at ang bawa't ganid sa parang; datapuwa't sa lalake ay walang nasumpungang maging katulong niya.
Genesis 2:20
Explanation of Genesis 2:20
Napsal(a) Brian David
The Lord had shown the people of the Most Ancient Church (Adam) the spiritual gifts of their celestial state, their state of love to the Lord. He had shown them the loving affections (beasts of the field), the inspired thoughts (fowl of the air) and the life that filled their spiritual existence (living creatures). And the people recognized the nature of those things, and where they came from (they gave them names).
But it was not enough. The people wanted to lead themselves and feel life as their own. They did not want to be in the highest celestial state anymore.
