Lesson One
BEGINNINGS
(Selections from Genesis 1-11).
Psalm 8. A hymn praising God for the marvels of creation,
especially his wonderful relationship with man.
The Psalmist, gazing at the stars, senses his insignificance,
yet is reminded of man's special place in the universe (v. 4).
Man is special because God cares for him,
because he has a relationship with God.
"Man is Lord of the earth".
If this applies to the whole human race,
it most perfectly applies to Christ,
son of God, son of man.
To outline the sacred authors' presentation
of harmony and disharmony in the relationships
between God, mankind, and other created things (Gen 1-11).
This lesson considers the first eleven
chapters of the Book of Genesis.
We will divide it into five sections as follows:
1. The Great Harmony (Gen 1 :1-2:25)
2. The Damaged Harmony (Gen 3:1-6:4)
3. The Collapse of Creation (Gen 6:5-8:19)
4. The Required Adjustments (Gen 9: 1-27)
5. The Division of Nations and its Meaning (Gen 10: 1-11 :9)
These eleven chapters hold together to form
a unit which was carefully planned in order
to convey certain truths.
It is important to keep this inner unity in mind.
For example, it would be wrong to base our notion of sin
("original sin") solely on a few verses of chapter 3,
when the author develops the notion
of sin through the eleven chapters.
