Before we proceed further into the other chapters of Genesis, you must be able to grasp that the whole creation is not without a thoroughly thought through and planned out purpose. Contrary to the lies in the doctrines of evil religions which laid claims to being from that of the GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, GOD did not randomly and in an ad hoc manner created and brought things into existence and then in an after thought manner dealt with all the consequential problems that arose. Read entirely the chapter 'The Old Covenant And The New Covenant' where this point is thoroughly expounded.
One crucial point to understanding about the Christian Holy Scriptures and the whole creation itself, is that creation has one central, main and primary purpose. If your mind cannot grasp this or will not accept it then there is no point for you to try to understand the Holy Christian Scriptures, because you won't be able to make any real sense of it, just as all the lying anti-GOD religions and they great and illustrious experts and authorities have never been able to until this day, turning to all manner of ridiculous myths, twists, spins and lies in their evil doctrines to portray the WORD of GOD as an inconsistent purposely and irrelevant records. This they do so that people will totally believe and obey them to let them exploit and commit all manner of horrific abuses on the weak and defenseless.

The whole creation, the spiritual and the physical realm, the heavens and the earth and all that are in them are created because:
…….. I am God, and there is none like Me, Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things that are not yet done, Saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, And I will do all My pleasure,
The whole creation both spiritual and physical is for GOD’s purpose, will and good pleasure. Every other reason is supplementary to it and serves only to advance it.
All things were created through Him and for Him
What is that purpose, will and good pleasure? That is what this blog (and the book it is based on) is expounding and discussing, because a great deception had gone out from very soon after the founding of the Church of GOD on the day of Pentecost nearly two thousand years ago. Starting at the very Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:1 - 7), and from there throughout the history of the ancient nations of Israel and Judah until this very day.
Even from a few years after that Day of Pentecost in the first century C.E. when the New Covenant Church of GOD (Matthew 16:18), was founded. A great deception (Matthew 24:5; mark 13:6; Luke 21:8; 2 Peter 2:1 - 2) began slowly creeping into and eventually replacing the membership of the Church of GOD so that the original message, the Gospel of Kingdom of GOD, announced by the SON of GOD and preached by HIS Apostles were replaced by a false message of the great Babylonian Mystery Religion (Revelation 17:5). For the full disclosure on this and what is this great Babylonian Mystery Religion read the chapter 'The Elect' and also another of my book 'The End of the World How It Is Going To Happen' (extract of this book will begin publishing here from January 2010 C.E.).
All of these were recorded in the Christian Holy Scripture and brought to light in the epistles of the Apostles. Read them for the proof of what I am saying here in the following verses 2 John 1:7; 3 John 1:3 - 10; Galatians 1:6; 2 Corinthians 11:4; Revelation 17:2 - 6.

Back to the discussion on Genesis. Genesis 2 is basically another perspective of Genesis 1 delving into greater details on some key aspects of Genesis 1. The first few verses of Genesis 2 actually belonged in Genesis 1. Genesis 2 verses 1 to 3 finished off the ‘creation’ week of Genesis with the last thing to be created in this ‘creation’ week. One of the reasons for me to say this is that the creation of the seventh day was part of the ‘creation’ week and not separate from it. You can cross reference Genesis 2 verses 2 to 3 with Exodus 20 verse 11 and also Matthew 12:8, Mark 2:28, Luke 6:5 as they clearly confirmed this.
A new student to the Christian Holy Scriptures needs to understand that in the original Scriptures, the book of Genesis and also the other books of the Bible, were not divided into chapters and verses as it is in the Bible today. These were the works of Bible translators breaking the Holy Christian Scriptures into verses and chapters making for easier reference study.

These translators being carnal minded man not having GOD’s HOLY SPIRIT made many errors, not only incorrectly dividing the verses and chapters but also in the translation of many of the very words of the Scriptures. I will not elaborate on this. If the reader wishes to pursue this further I recommend the reader studies the history of the religion in both secular and religious sources as what I say here can be easily confirmed.
Verses 1 to 3 of Genesis chapter 2, in context belonged with Genesis 1, with verse 4 to 7 being the appropriate closing for Genesis 1. Verse 4 being an obvious summation of Genesis 1 with verse 7 highlighting the very personal and intimate act in the bringing to life of the first man (John 20:22). These verses being an appropriate conclusion to Genesis 1 whereas the last verse in Genesis 1 which is verse 31 was just the ending of the sixth day, with the creation of the seventh day completely left out.
Verse 8 up to verse 25 all belonged to the sixth day of the creation week, arranged in a more or less chronological order. Verses 8 to 14 served as a foreword to verse 15. These verses also served to identify the location of the Garden of Eden and the fact that GOD planted it. It was not just any garden but a paradise Garden planted specifically by GOD for Adam and Eve. So where was the Garden of Eden located? If you would believe the Christian Bible you would know.
In verses 15 to 17 we have the first recorded law or commandment given directly by GOD to man, the first Adam. Here GOD also defined HIS requirement to Adam, the conditions by which Adam was to live in the Garden of Eden. In other words: Adam’s duties. No it was not a vacation stay without responsibility. Of special note is that this commandment and other conditions were given to Adam before Eve was created.
Adam was the one given the authority to name all the animals, Eve was not created yet. After all this then GOD created Eve, and not separately but from Adam. In modern scientific term we might say that Eve was a sort of a clone of Adam, only of the opposite sex. If you are a member of a church which teaches that seeing doctors or that medical surgeries are sinful, you should understand that the first recorded surgical procedure was carried out by GOD on Adam.
Every theologian who advocated that man and women were originally created as equal governing partners of the (i.e. of equal rank/authority in) family by GOD had deliberately chosen to ignore Genesis 2 verses 15 to 23 and numerous other verses, including those that are in the New Covenant records which clearly taught otherwise. The chapter, ‘Sons of GOD and Daughthers of Man’ gives the correct teaching on the GOD ordained role for man and woman in our present physical realm.
Woman was not created inferior to man in terms of intelligence or intellectual capabilities. Physiologically in a general sense in terms of strength and physique, yes women are weaker. But not in a medical sense such as being more prone to illness or diseases. Science can more or less provide us with answers on physiological difference between men and women contributed primarily by genetic composition and hormonal factors. The sexual difference between male and female is biological (i.e. pertaining to the body) not mental (i.e. pertaining to the mind).
Woman as created according to GOD's ordained purpose, was to be secondary to man in the order (chain or hierarchy of authority) of the family and in the running (i.e. governing) of the family. And still is! This means that in a family the father is the head (i.e. Lord and master), not an equal partner with the wife. Read Ephesians 5 verses 22 to 24 and also 1 Peter 3 verses 5 to 6. In a similar way all the Angels are going to be secondary to all of mankind who will be born into GOD's FAMILY at the Second Advent.
Women were made for men (1 Corinthians 11:9) in this current physical realm. Angels who were made first (billions of years before mankind) and who now are currently far, far superior to men, too were made to serve men in the future time when GOD brings all HIS SONS to full birth into HIS Family. Read the full details of this being expounded in the chapters ‘Sons Of GOD, Daughters Of Men’ and ‘Angels, Demons And Men.’

But in terms of Spiritual potential and heritage man and woman are equal (Galatians 3:28) as both were created in the image and likeness of GOD. Sex and sexuality are physical attributes (pertaining to the current realm of man) that do not exist in the Spiritual realm or in the resurrection for judgment. Sex was created by GOD (Genesis 1:27) as a relationship enhancer and family enabler in marriage between man and woman for this temporary physical realm in this transitory journey of mankind.
What that means is that in terms of the ability and potential of the mind, men and women were created equal. Both men and women were made with a potential to have the mind of CHRIST. In terms of the ability to think, to reason and to exercise self control men and women were originally and are equality endowed. There is no inherent inferiority built into women that made them less capable than men in these aspects.
The next two verses 24 and 25 talked about marriage and sex. The chapter ‘Marriage, Sex and True Love’ covers the GOD ordained institution of marriage and how sex was meant to serve as the physical as well as the spiritual bonding process between the husband and wife. We won’t go into details on these two verses here.
