"... and lets create a man on our image, so he can stand for and monitor all the things we have made..." its the most thrilling statement in the bible showing about the completion of CREATION on what the bible and other religious book call, the creation of the earth. indeed it is,in one way or the other very convincing that the first man ever on the earth was created and lived in the Eden Garden which is believed to be somewhere in the middle east.
As one continues to enjoy and reading this creation story in the bible, we see how that small population of human race began to grow big. As the Adam and his wife Eve were blessed to have sons and daughter (though in their culture girls were less considered unless there was a significant role they do play). the most amazing thing in the story is when the woman was deceived by the snake, and the two sinned by disobeying the God and punishment was death to all of them without forgetting how man would live his life before he dies, and a woman pains in giving birth and so forth.
Apart from that the act of the older brother to kill his young brother brings something new to the world of creation, the death.. Adam witness the meaning of death, what happens when some dies and as a punishment God sent the older brother away from the small community but he MARKED the brother on his fore head so as
PEOPLE from where he will be fled SHOULD NOT KILL HIM. this is the most interesting yet confusing part in the whole creation story as told by bible and other religious book.
I might be having low profiling about the facts of creation of the earth and the human race on the earth, if at all the creation was the first to all human race and the bible from the very beginning tells us how Adam and his family lived with exclusion of other societies. then here here were conclusions
- why should the older brother, as we are told in the bible, asked God to protect him so as people should not kill him as he was chased of the family?
- I do believe in CREATION and there was a creation on human but the creation didn't base on the entire human races on the earth surface, However the only human race created on the earth was the Israelite. and from the Israelite is where other human races should live and follow the example to.
- THE STORY OF EVOLUTION of earth still holds its truth as the world just appeared due to the explosion of hydrogen clouds though the theory does not answer at all if people do evolve and developed from the apes why it takes long for the now apes to turn into humans
- on the joint above, (2) it might be that the human race's ancestors were and are of differnt species as from the apes and that species will no longer be existed as it has evolved
- the story of creation and the evolution theory are sometimes intersect somehow although depends on how one approaches it.
- The whole story of CREATION based and reflects on culture of the jews and israelites ONLY because if otherwise, the creation story fails to explain as where does other human races like africans, indians , red indians and the far east Asians as chines and Japanese come from.
