Бытие 2

1 Такимъ образомъ совершены небеса и земля и все воинство ихъ.

2 И совершилъ Богъ днемъ седьмымъ дјло Свое, которое Онъ дјлалъ и почилъ въ день седьмый отъ всего дјла Своего, которое Онъ дјлалъ.

3 И благословилъ Богъ день седьмый; и освятилъ его, ибо въ оный почилъ отъ всего дјла Своего, которое Богъ творилъ и дјлалъ.

4 Сіи суть порожденія небесъ и земли, при сотвореніи ихъ, въ то время, когда Іегова Богъ создалъ землю и небеса.

5 И всякой полевой кустарникъ, котораго до того не было на землј, и всякую полевую траву, которая до того не произростала; ибо Іегова Богъ не посылалъ дождя на землю, и не было человјка, для воздјланія поля.

6 Только паръ поднимался съ земли, и орошалъ все лице земли.

7 Іегова Богъ создалъ человјка изъ персти земной, и вдунулъ въ ноздри его дыханіе жизни, и человјкъ сталъ душею живою.

8 И насадилъ Іегова Богъ садъ въ Едемј къ востоку: и поставилъ тамъ человјка, котораго создалъ.

9 И произрастилъ Іегова Богъ изъ земли всякое дерево прекрасное видомъ, и хорошее для пищи и дерево жизни посреди сада, и дерево познанія добра и зла,

10 Изъ Едема выходила рјка для орошенія сада; и потомъ раздјлялась на четыре потока.

11 Имя перваго Фисонъ; онъ обтекаетъ всю землю Хавила, гдј есть золото.

12 И золото земли той наилучшее, тамъ также бдолахъ и камень ониксъ.

13 Имя второй рјкј Гихонъ: сія обтекаетъ всю землю Хушъ.

14 Имя третьей рјкј Хиддекель; сія протекаетъ противъ Ассиріи. Четвертая рјка есть Ефратъ.

15 И взялъ Іегова Богъ человјка, и поставилъ его въ саду Едемскомъ, чтобы онъ воздјлывалъ его и хранилъ его.

16 И заповјдалъ Іегова Богъ человјку, говоря: јшъ плоды со всякаго дерева въ семъ саду.

17 А плодовъ древа познанія добра и зла не јшь; ибо въ день, въ который ты вкусишь ихъ, смертію умрешь.

18 И сказалъ Іегова Богъ: не хорошо быть человјку одному; сдјлаю ему помощь приличную ему.

19 Ибо когда Іегова Богъ создалъ изъ земли всјхъ звјрей полевыхъ, и всјхъ птицъ небесныхъ, и привелъ къ человјку, чтобы онъ посмотрјлъ, какъ назвать ихъ, и чтобы, какъ наречетъ человјкъ всякую душу живую, такъ и было имя ей;

20 и когда нарекъ человікъ имена всему скоту и птицамъ небеснымъ и всјмъ звјрямъ полевымъ: тогда для человјка не нашлось помощи приличной ему.

21 И навелъ Іегова Богъ на человјка крјпкій сонъ; и когда онъ уснулъ, взялъ одно изъ ребръ его, и закрылъ то мјсто плотію.

22 И создалъ Іегова Богъ изъ ребра, взятаго у человјка, жену, и привелъ ее къ человјку.

23 Тогда человјкъ сказалъ: вотъ это кость изъ костей моихъ, и плоть отъ плоти моей; она будетъ называться женою: ибо она взята изъ мужа.

24 Посему оставитъ человјкъ отца своего и свою мать, и прилјпится къ женј своей, и будутъ одна плоть.

25 И были они оба наги, человјкъ и жена его, и не стыдились.

144. That to “call by name” signifies to know the quality, is because the ancients, by the “name” understood the essence of a thing, and by “seeing and calling by name” they understood to know the quality. The reason was that they gave names to their sons and daughters according to the things which were signified, for every name had something peculiar in it, from which, and by which, they might know the origin and the nature of their children, as will be seen in a future part of this work, when, of the Lord’s Divine mercy, we come to treat of the twelve sons of Jacob. As therefore the names implied the source and quality of the things named, nothing else was understood by “calling by name.” This was the customary mode of speaking among them, but one who does not understand this may wonder that such things should be signified.

Genesis 2

Study

   

1 The heavens and the earth were finished, and all their vast array.

2 On the seventh day God finished his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

3 God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work which he had created and made.

4 This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that Yahweh God made the earth and the heavens.

5 No plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for Yahweh God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground,

6 but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.

7 Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

8 Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.

9 Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the middle of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

10 A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became four heads.

11 The name of the first is Pishon: this is the one which flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;

12 and the gold of that land is good. There is aromatic resin and the onyx stone.

13 The name of the second river is Gihon: the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.

14 The name of the third river is Hiddekel: this is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.

15 Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

16 Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;

17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it; for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die."

18 Yahweh God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him."

19 Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.

20 The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper suitable for him.

21 Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

22 He made the rib, which Yahweh God had taken from the man, into a woman, and brought her to the man.

23 The man said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called 'woman,' because she was taken out of man."

24 Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.

25 They were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
