1 So wurden vollendet der Himmel und die Erde und all ihr Heer.

2 Und Gott hatte am siebten Tage sein Werk vollendet, das er gemacht hatte; und er ruhte am siebten Tage von all seinem Werk, das er gemacht hatte.

3 Und Gott segnete den siebten Tag und heiligte ihn; denn an demselben ruhte er von all seinem Werk, das Gott geschaffen hatte, indem er es machte.

4 Dies ist die Geschichte des Himmels und der Erde, als sie geschaffen wurden, an dem Tage, da Jehova Gott Erde und Himmel machte,

5 und ehe alles Gesträuch des Feldes auf der Erde war, und ehe alles Kraut des Feldes sproßte; denn Jehova Gott hatte nicht regnen lassen auf die Erde, und kein Mensch war da, um den Erdboden zu bebauen.

6 Ein Dunst aber stieg auf von der Erde und befeuchtete die ganze Oberfläche des Erdbodens.

7 Und Jehova Gott bildete den Menschen, Staub von dem Erdboden, und hauchte in seine Nase den Odem des Lebens; und der Mensch wurde eine lebendige Seele.

8 Und Jehova Gott pflanzte einen Garten in Eden gegen Osten, und er setzte dorthin den Menschen, den er gebildet hatte.

9 Und Jehova Gott ließ aus dem Erdboden allerlei Bäume wachsen, lieblich anzusehen und gut zur Speise; und den Baum des Lebens in der Mitte des Gartens, und den Baum der Erkenntnis des Guten und Bösen.

10 Und ein Strom ging aus von Eden, den Garten zu bewässern; und von dort aus teilte er sich und wurde zu vier Flüssen.

11 Der Name des ersten ist Pison; dieser ist es, der das ganze Land Hawila umfließt, wo das Gold ist;

12 und das Gold dieses Landes ist gut; daselbst ist das Bdellion und der Stein Onyx.

13 Und der Name des zweiten Flusses: Gihon; dieser ist es, der das ganze Land Kusch umfließt.

14 Und der Name des dritten Flusses: Hiddekel; dieser ist es, der vor Assyrien fließt. Und der vierte Fluß, das ist der Phrath.

15 Und Jehova Gott nahm den Menschen und setzte ihn in den Garten Eden, ihn zu bebauen und ihn zu bewahren.

16 Und Jehova Gott gebot dem Menschen und sprach: Von jedem Baume des Gartens darfst du nach Belieben essen;

17 aber von dem Baume der Erkenntnis des Guten und Bösen, davon sollst du nicht essen; denn welches Tages du davon issest, wirst du gewißlich sterben.

18 Und Jehova Gott sprach: Es ist nicht gut, daß der Mensch allein sei; ich will ihm eine Hilfe machen, seines Gleichen.

19 Und Jehova Gott bildete aus dem Erdboden alles Getier des Feldes und alles Gevögel des Himmels, und er brachte sie zu dem Menschen, um zu sehen, wie er sie nennen würde; und wie irgend der Mensch ein lebendiges Wesen nennen würde, so sollte sein Name sein.

20 Und der Mensch gab Namen allem Vieh und dem Gevögel des Himmels und allem Getier des Feldes. Aber für Adam fand er keine Hilfe seines Gleichen.

21 Und Jehova Gott ließ einen tiefen Schlaf auf den Menschen fallen, und er entschlief. Und er nahm eine von seinen Rippen und verschloß ihre Stelle mit Fleisch;

22 und Jehova Gott baute aus der Rippe, die er von dem Menschen genommen hatte, ein Weib, und er brachte sie zu dem Menschen.

23 Und der Mensch sprach: Diese ist einmal Gebein von meinen Gebeinen und Fleisch von meinem Fleische; diese soll Männin heißen, denn vom Manne ist diese genommen.

24 Darum wird ein Mann seinen Vater und seine Mutter verlassen und seinem Weibe anhangen, und sie werden ein Fleisch sein.

25 Und sie waren beide nackt, der Mensch und sein Weib, und sie schämten sich nicht.

145. In the Word too 'name' means the essential nature of a real thing, and 'seeing and calling by name' knowing characters, as in Isaiah,

I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hoarded riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, Jehovah, the one calling you by name, the God of Israel. For the sake of My servant Jacob, and of Israel My chosen, and I have called you by name, I have surnamed you, but you do not know Me. Isaiah 45:3-4.

Here 'calling by name' and 'surnaming' mean knowing his character beforehand. In the same prophet,

You will be called by a new name which the mouth of Jehovah will declare. Isaiah 62:2.

This stands for his becoming a different person, as is clear from what precedes and what follows these words. In the same prophet,

O Israel, fear not, for I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name, you are Mine. Isaiah 43:1.

This stands for knowing character. Again in the same prophet,

Lift up your eyes on high and see; who created these? He who brings out their host by number; He will call them all by name. Isaiah 40:26.

This stands for His knowing them all. In Revelation,

You have a few names in Sardis, who have not soiled their garments. He who conquers will be clad in white garments and I will not blot his name out of the book of life; and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels. Revelation 3:4-5.

Elsewhere in the same book,

Whose names have not been written in the book of life of the Lamb. Revelation 13:8.

In these places 'names' is in no way used to mean names but people's characters. Nor in heaven do they know anyone's name, only his character.

Genesis 1

pag-aaral

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.

5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." There was evening and there was morning, one day.

6 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."

7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.

8 God called the expanse "sky." There was evening and there was morning, a second day.

9 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear;" and it was so.

10 God called the dry land "earth," and the gathering together of the waters he called "seas." God saw that it was good.

11 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed in it, on the earth;" and it was so.

12 The earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with its seed in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.

13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.

14 God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;

15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light on the earth;" and it was so.

16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.

17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,

18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

20 God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky."

21 God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.

22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

24 God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind;" and it was so.

25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.

26 God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

27 God created man in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.

28 God blessed them. God said to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

29 God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.

30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food;" and it was so.

31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
