Genesis 12:1-3 - Kim Janowski
“Genesis, in fact, is in various ways almost nearer the New Testament than the Old, and some of its topics are barely heard again till their implications can fully emerge in the gospel. The institution of marriage, the fall of man, the jealousy of Cain, the judgment of the flood, the imputed righteousness of the believer, the rival sons of promise and of the flesh, the profanity of Esau, the pilgrim status of God’s people, are all predominantly New Testament themes.” Derek Kidner
“Genesis 1:1-2:3 is a record of creating not begetting. God does order earth to bring forth plants and animals during the creation week, but Genesis conceives of that as God’s own work rather than the begetting of earth. When we get to Genesis 2, earth is a more active partner in making: Watered by rain from heaven, the earth will sprout with plants (2:5), and man is presented as one of the “begettings” of heaven and earth, the product of earthy dust and heavenly Breath. God creates from nothing; heaven and earth and human beings are fruitful by begetting.” - Peter Leithart
“Genesis 1-2 describes life as it out to be, fruitful, peaceful and endued with the presence of God. Meanwhile, Gen 3-11 describes life as it often is - Difficult, violent, and under divine judgement.” Gordon Wenham
“These few verses offer a theological blueprint for the redemptive history of the world.” William Dumbrell
