Postanak 2

1 Tako se dovrši nebo i zemlja i sva vojska njihova.

2 I svrši Bog do sedmog dana dela svoja, koja učini; i počinu u sedmi dan od svih dela svojih, koja učini;

3 I blagoslovi Bog sedmi dan, i posveti ga, jer u taj dan počinu od svih dela svojih, koja učini;

4 To je postanje neba i zemlje, kad postaše, kad Gospod Bog stvori zemlju i nebo,

5 I svaku biljku poljsku, dokle je još ne beše na zemlji, i svaku travku poljsku, dokle još ne nicaše; jer Gospod Bog još ne pusti dažda na zemlju, niti beše čoveka da radi zemlju,

6 Ali se podizaše para sa zemlje da natapa svu zemlju.

7 A stvori Gospod Bog čoveka od praha zemaljskog, i dunu mu u nos duh životni; i posta čovek duša živa.

8 I nasadi Gospod Bog vrt u Edemu na istoku; i onde namesti čoveka, kog stvori.

9 I učini Gospod Bog, te nikoše iz zemlje svakakva drveća lepa za gledanje i dobra za jelo, i drvo od života usred vrta i drvo od znanja dobra i zla.

10 A voda tečaše iz Edema natapajući vrt, i odande se deljaše u četiri reke.

11 Jednoj je ime Fison, ona teče oko cele zemlje evilske, a onde ima zlata,

12 I zlato je one zemlje vrlo dobro; onde ima i bdela i dragog kamena oniha.

13 A drugoj je reci ime Geon, ona teče oko cele zemlje huske.

14 A trećoj je reci ime Hidekel, ona teče k asirskoj. A četvrta je reka Efrat.

15 I uzevši Gospod Bog čoveka namesti ga u vrtu edemskom, da ga radi i da ga čuva.

16 I zapreti Gospod Bog čoveku govoreći: Jedi slobodno sa svakog drveta u vrtu;

17 Ali s drveta od znanja dobra i zla, s njega ne jedi; jer u koji dan okusiš s njega, umrećeš.

18 I reče Gospod Bog: Nije dobro da je čovek sam; da mu načinim druga prema njemu.

19 Jer Gospod Bog stvori od zemlje sve zveri poljske i sve ptice nebeske, i dovede k Adamu da vidi kako će koju nazvati, pa kako Adam nazove koju životinju onako da joj bude ime;

20 I Adam nadede ime svakom živinčetu i svakoj ptici nebeskoj i svakoj zveri poljskoj; ali se ne nađe Adamu drug prema njemu.

21 I Gospod Bog pusti tvrd san na Adama, te zaspa; pa mu uze jedno rebro, i mesto popuni mesom;

22 I Gospod Bog stvori ženu od rebra, koje uze Adamu, i dovede je k Adamu.

23 A Adam reče: Sada eto kost od mojih kosti, i telo od mog tela. Neka joj bude ime čovečica, jer je uzeta od čoveka.

24 Zato će ostaviti čovek oca svog i mater svoju, i prilepiće se k ženi svojoj, i biće dvoje jedno telo.

25 A behu oboje goli. Adam i žena mu, i ne beše ih sramota.

300. As regards the first arcanum-that by “Jehovah God” is meant the Lord and at the same time heaven-it is to be observed that in the Word, always for a secret reason, the Lord is sometimes called merely “Jehovah” sometimes “Jehovah God” sometimes “Jehovah” and then “God” sometimes the “Lord Jehovih” sometimes the “God of Israel” and sometimes “God” only. Thus in the first chapter of Genesis, where it is also said, in the plural, “Let us make man in our image” He is called “God” only, and He is not called “Jehovah God” until the following chapter, where the celestial man is treated of. He is called “Jehovah” because He alone is or lives, thus from Essence; and “God” because He can do all things, thus from Power; as is evident from the Word, where this distinction is made (Isaiah 49:4-5; 55:7; Psalms 18:2, 28-29, 31; 31:14). On this account every angel or spirit who spoke with man, and who was supposed to possess any power, was called “God” as appears from David:

God hath stood in the congregation of God, He will judge in the midst of the gods (Psalms 82:1);

and in another place:

Who in the sky shall be compared unto Jehovah? who among the sons of the gods shall be likened to Jehovah? (Psalms 89:6).

Again:

Confess ye to the God of gods, confess ye to the Lord of lords (Psalms 136:2-3).

Men also as being possessed of power are called “gods” as in Psalms 82:6; John 10:34-35. Moses also is said to be “a god to Pharaoh” (Exodus 7:1). For this reason the word “God” in the Hebrew is in the plural number—“Elohim.” But as the angels do not possess the least power of themselves, as indeed they acknowledge, but solely from the Lord, and as there is but one God, therefore by “Jehovah God” in the Word is meant the Lord alone. But where anything is effected by the ministry of angels, as in the first chapter of Genesis, He is spoken of in the plural number. Here also because the celestial man, as man, could not be put in comparison with the Lord, but with the angels only, it is said, the man “is become as one of us, knowing good and evil” that is, is wise and intelligent.
