I am reading Genesis and am so very blessed to have found your Genesis lessons. Thank you so very much for taking your time to make these lessons. You're very knowledgeable and the way you dive deep into scripture and explain Gods word is a true blessing to everyone. I hope you make more lessons on your channel! Blessings!
Thank you so much for this. I just started studying the Bible and started at Genesis and was trying to find videos that can help me understand and well you explained it so well. Thank you 🙏🏻 looking forward to Chapter 2 and rest of them
2 yrs ago, this was posted and I'm just finding this. I'm just thankful it's still here,so I can follow along and learn from this man of God. May God richly bless you for taking time to teach us.
I am so very grateful to have stumble across this video, all I can say is WOW!!!!! Like, the way the Holy Spirit use this man to break down Genesis 1 helps me to understand it better than I ever did. This is an amazing study. 📖 thank you God for using Him to teach us your word, I pray you bless Him to continue on in His journey. His work is not in vain. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💕💕💕🌸✝️📖🩸☮️♥️📖
I'm really blessed to have come across your TH-cam page. I just wanted to started to study the bible and I was having issue understanding the creation from chapter 1 to 2 but I'm happy to have come across this video on TH-cam... God will bless you more
Praise the Lord for your devotion and patience in detailing out the rich truths of God's Word. We've gone to church all our lives and we've taught Sunday School for years, yet we are learning and connecting the gaps thanks to your teaching. Thank You
Thankyou, so helpful. This is the first time I have recognised the significance of being given the role of governance, and the command to spread life. We, as created beings, point to the greater being, the Creator of all.
I neeeeeeeeded this for so long, I am speechless, I am exited to see how it progresses. Thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart and I hope that you will see this and that this may encourage you too, for the word, the truth, is hated by this world.
It is so exciting. 1 chapter a day has been my goal since then. And I'm going to start again but now I have a reference to help me understand... Thank you.
I was looking for a bible study video I could follow along with to grasp a better understanding of what I am reading and I could not be more glad I’d stumbled upon this video. You began to break verses down and gather so much from them that I was left astonished. Definitely learned a lot from just this one chapter, thank you for your guidance.
I nearly skipped over this first video but I'm glad I was convicted not to. When you speak of the natural world being a reflection of God it makes a whole lot of sense to me. Even before I wanted to admit what it was I would sometimes stop and take in the beauty and amazement of the world. There was a feeling of awe included in that too. Turns out I was feeling the glory and power of God. I still search for these moments but I will now have a deeper understanding of the feeling that goes in tandem.
I just found your videos I love them Thank you so much. You have explained so much I am in Genesis Chaper 9 in your videos can't wait to see more. Thank you GOD Bless you!
God bless you, this was a great study easy to understand. I have been studying Genesis 1 and looking at various sermons/lessons, etc but this one was really helpful and blessed my life.
He made the teaching clear, factually the earth does not depend on the sun, it depends on God's light, the plants, in both the land and sea were created prior to the mechanism of time keeping as it was given to the earth via the sun and the moon and the stars. Therefore the lunar calendar, when extrapolated backwards does not capture all of creation. Man however was told the story, and so it was Adam and his progeny especially through Noah to Abraham and to Moses and the Jews (and ultimately to Jesus Christ) in general to be entrusted as the keepers of time/Sabbath until it was to be shared with the Gentiles. So when you observe the Sabbath even as a Christian, you are acknowledging God's seal of ownership over yourself, time and all of creation. This careful lecture gives learners such as myself time to go far beyond what years of rushing through the first part of Genesis has allowed. Thank you for this series. (If anyone disagrees with what I have written I suggest you go through the lecture again maybe even with your bible open.)
God bless you for this, was looking for a Bible study to do with a young Christian friend and this is just perfect, going to send it to my sister as well and pray she will listen to it and that it will bless her too, its definately blessing me, can't thank you enough.❤
Thank you so much! I am so grateful for all the study videos of Genesis :) thank you, for your time that you took to make this available.. even 4 years later :) God bless
Thank you so much for this. I used to struggle understanding the scriptures but this video has helped me to understand the beginning of Genesis. God bless you so much.
This was great. Especially for beginners you can easily be confused or not understand. Thanks for breaking it down. May good bless you. Hope you continue doing more.
I had some great take aways from this. Couple of things on my mind is the assumption that vegetation was our first source of food and the likeness to create. I may be wrong on this but we were created last so why would vegetation be assumed as our main source of food or that it was created for breathable air? The last thing is how could we create if we didn't get knowledge until the Garden of Eden with the eating of the forbidden fruit? Again this is just me trying to understand, thanks.
Hi, Thanks for taking the time to make this video, I was wondering, if Jesus has always been in existence with God, how is it that God speaks Him into existence as the light you refer to in Genesis 1? Is it that God spoke Him into physical existence within the universe but that He was already existing before, not physically? Or is it that you did not mean it literally? thanks
Just curious because I’m considering using this to lead a men’s Bible study. What are your credentials? Not asking to be combative just truly curious before I lead a group of men through this
I would like to know WHY I was forced to watch an ad that was a nasty hip hop rap commercial with vulgarity in it ....! 2 commercials and this was the second one.
You don’t need to repeat the same sentence 20 times.. I don’t feel like sitting through 36 minutes and 27 seconds of my time when you’re just gonna repeat the same sentence in my head again and again now I cannot focus since you have the sentence stuck in my head because you repeat it 20 times and my brain can’t process anything else
Probably the whole of Genesis ch.1 is a loanword from an ancient Sumerian praise hymn to creation (a priestly hymn related to the fertility calendar), inserted in book of "Genesis", only after the return of the Jews from the Babylonian captivity, carried out by the scribe Ezra. It seems that the Sumerians counted the year as 6 double (solar-lunar) months of 60 days each, which seems to be the basis of the text of Gen. ch.1 When the first (solar) half of the double 60-day month (~ 30.4 Sun days) ended, "evening" came. And when the second (lunar part of ~ 29.5 days) passed - the "morning" of the new solar-lunar (60-day) double month (time period) came. It is the expression "and there was evening and there was morning" (see Genesis 1: 5,8,13,19,23,31) that reveals exactly this very specific way of counting the Sumerian year (6x60 days). The first double month began on December 22 - "Let there be light!" - in the oldest myths it is always the day of the Winter Solstice. After 60 days, the second double (solar-lunar 60-day) month came - characterized by an ebb of the waters, during which drought appeared. After another 60 days - the new crop emerged - on trees and all kinds of seed-bearing grasses. After another 60 days, summer came - associated with the largest religious cults of worship to the two (large and small) celestial luminaries. After another 60 days in Sumer came the time when fish and birds multiplied. Finally, the last 6th part was devoted to the fertility of animals and the authority given to man by the creators over all creation. Most likely, the scribe Ezra plagiarized and crafty adapted this ancient Sumerian hymn as a priestly (badly molded) justification for the requirement for the Jews (after the captivity) to observe the Sabbath - the seventh day, as a rest (allegedly since the time of creation). Genesis ch.1 - is a Jewish Priestly Fictions.
self evident both of the Completed Creation and of Genesis 1: 1. The general Heaven and is special Earth; 2. The Earth, as its own general, in its relation to its likewise cosmically unique possession: an abiding maximal abundance of liquid water; 3. Likewise, that water and its special cycle; 4. The water cycle and its special beneficiary and member, life; 5. Life and its special category, animal life (plant/animal/mineral = animal); 6. Animal life and its special category, human life; ...7. A man and his wife.
His very word is life and brings life. God is light and in hom is dark at all. John 1:5. I like KJV. and the firmament being used. In the Hebrew bible, dome is used for the translation firmament. The dome over is us is that firmament.
Please Explain further 1. The Fermament- KJV, RSV (Vault -NIV, Space- EsV) 1:6,7 2. The prohibition/first Commanment (my opinion) that human had to eat only the plans and DONT TAKE AWAY LIFE be it animal or human (1:30) 3. Divine realm is Gender Oriented or Genderless (in light of image and likeness 1:26 & Male and female 1:27)
The Hebrew word "HAYA"" is incorrectly translated in Genesis 1:3 as "let there be". The word "HAYA" is the name of God "I AM", revealed to Moses in Exodus 3:14 :"And God said unto Moses 'I AM (HAYA) THAT I AM (HAYA)': and he said, thou shalt say unto the children of Israel: I AM (HAYA) hath sent me unto you". Genesis 1:3 should therefore be translated "and God said IAM (HAYA) the light." This is beautiful since this light here refers to Jesus being the light of the world. I thought you may like to know.
If Genesis 1:1 mainly means 'God, who precedes everything, created everything', then Genesis 1:1 tells us nothing of who this God is in deep relation to everything. In other words, if this is what the verse mainly means, then the verse does not preclude the idea that this God is the aloof or incapable 'creator' of the deist-cum-evolutionist. Does v. 1 have to get it deeper value from the rest of the account? If so, then v. 1 is pretty shallow. But I do not think v. 1 need be interpreted as being mainly about this shallowness. For example, its merism, 'the heaven and the Earth' self-evidently is about a *relationship* between two things: the general cosmos and the special Earth. Thus v. 1 self-evidently implies that God is about relationship, not mainly or only about being 'The Precedent Creator' whatever that ever is supposed by anyone to imply. It may not be untrue, as far as it goes, to say such things as 'In the chronologically absolutely first instant, God created space and matter.' But, consider the depth to which v. 1 can express Divine Design: 1. the general cosmos and the special Earth. 2. The Earth, as its own general subject, implying that which we all intuit is most valuable about the Earth unto itself in all the cosmos: its abiding maximal abundance of open liquid water. 3. that water and its special relation to the Sun's light, hence the water cycle; 4. The water cycle and its special beneficiary and member, biology; 5. biology and its special category, animal biology (plant/animal/mineral = animal); 6. Animal biology and its special category, human; 7. The man and his wife (Genesis 2:21-23)
Problem is within a few minutes the claim that god made something from nothing is NOT in the text he is talking about *(Genesis 1:1). Learn Hebrew and get a good commentary. Why do apologists continually embellish the text and attempt to make it say something it is not saying? So frustrating!!

Thank you for your teaching
I'm two years late lol but I have been searching for an in-depth bible study of Genesis so thank you for this !!!!
He made the teaching clear, factually the earth does not depend on the sun, it depends on God's light, the plants, in both the land and sea were created prior to the mechanism of time keeping as it was given to the earth via the sun and the moon and the stars.

We have a responsibility to look over and care for the world and its creatures, NOT to own it. I never thought of it like that.

An atheist may disagree with you but YOU DID A GOOD JOB EXPLAINING IT

Thanks.............Alot
Thank you
Are you going to finish the other playlists like exodus and such?
very well explained LOVED it!!!! i do have one question what and who else is GOD referring to when he says "in OUR image"?
What version of the Bible are you reading from? Thank you and God bless.
Sounds like KJV. Based on the translations.
Hi, Thanks for taking the time to make this video, I was wondering, if Jesus has always been in existence with God, how is it that God speaks Him into existence as the light you refer to in Genesis 1? Is it that God spoke Him into physical existence within the universe but that He was already existing before, not physically? Or is it that you did not mean it literally? thanks
This would be great but the entire video is destroyed by non stop ads
Just curious because I’m considering using this to lead a men’s Bible study. What are your credentials? Not asking to be combative just truly curious before I lead a group of men through this
Will you be doing the whole Bible?
I SO NEED TO HEAR THE STUDY ON ROMANS!! HELP PLEASE!!
Was there a study in ROMANS? Where can I find it?
It really states, "Be light." or Light be."
I would like to know WHY I was forced to watch an ad that was a nasty hip hop rap commercial with vulgarity in it ....! 2 commercials and this was the second one.
Who is the "our" in Genesis 1:26
Could someone tell me what waters could possibly be above the expanse?
Clouds
👍
Im curious - are you teaching from KJV?
You don’t need to repeat the same sentence 20 times.. I don’t feel like sitting through 36 minutes and 27 seconds of my time when you’re just gonna repeat the same sentence in my head again and again now I cannot focus since you have the sentence stuck in my head because you repeat it 20 times and my brain can’t process anything else

You should check out ivan tuttles near death experience. When he was brought to heaven God showed him creation.
Bible version?
Genesis 9:3 I have given them to you for food, just as I have given you grain and vegetables...
do you have a web site?
self evident both of the Completed Creation and of Genesis 1:
1. The general Heaven and is special Earth;
2. The Earth, as its own general, in its relation to its likewise cosmically unique possession: an abiding maximal abundance of liquid water;

So we can't eat meat?
So in genesis chapter 1 verse 27…. God created male and female before Adam and Eve ??
What about free will ? Free will is the opposite of ownership .
His very word is life and brings life. God is light and in hom is dark at all. John 1:5. I like KJV. and the firmament being used. In the Hebrew bible, dome is used for the translation firmament. The dome over is us is that firmament.
Can’t watch. Far too many interruptions from ads. Years ago I knew this is where u tube was headed and we are here. So long
Vegetation are living things but I get what u mean
Please Explain further
1. The Fermament- KJV, RSV (Vault -NIV, Space- EsV) 1:6,7
2. The prohibition/first Commanment (my opinion) that human had to eat only the plans and DONT TAKE AWAY LIFE be it animal or human (1:30)
