Génesis 1:1-31 NVI

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Genesis 1:1-5

Beginnings Genesis 1:1-5 All beginnings must begin with God. Always put God first. The first stone in every building, our first thought every morning, the first aim and purpose of all activity. Begin the book of the year with God, and you will end it with the glory of the New Jerusalem. At first, as in the physical creation, your heart and life may seem to be “without form and void.” Do not be discouraged, the Spirit of God is within you, brooding amid the darkness, and presently His Light... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Genesis 1:6-19

Sky, Earth, Seasons Genesis 1:6-19 There were successive stages in creation. The days probably represent long periods. It is so with the new creation in our hearts. See 2 Corinthians 5:17 . In nature the clouds that float above us are separated from the waters at our feet so in Christian experience we must seek to quench our thirst not only from below, but from above. See Colossians 3:1-4 . Our wells must be filled from Heaven. Notice how in creation there are repeated separations, as... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Genesis 1:20-31

Man Creation’s Crown Genesis 1:20-31 Creation reveals God’s nature, as the picture the artist. His eternal Power and Godhead are visible in His works. See Romans 1:20 . And all things and beings were made through Jesus Christ. Consider Colossians 1:15-16 . The hands of the Son of God wove the blue curtains above us and filled them with luminaries. The seas are His and He made them, and filled them with living creatures. The woodlands are the outcome of His mind, and He filled them with... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Genesis 1:1-31

The opening sentence of the Book of Genesis is an interpretation of the fact "that what is seen hath not been made out of things which do appear" ( Heb 11:3 ), and accounts for the things which are seen. The whole chapter, and, indeed, all subsequent Scripture, must be read in the light of this statement as to origins. This sentence is followed immediately by a declaration, without detail, of a cataclysm which overtook the earth. It then proceeds to show how the God who created, restored the... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Genesis 1:1-5

The Alpha and Omega of Creation Genesis 1:1-5 ; Revelation 21:1-6 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. Genesis and Revelation contrasted. The Book of Genesis is commonly known as the Book of beginnings. It is there that everything takes its form, and comes into being. The Book of Revelation has been called Palin-genesis, that is, the beginning again. Revelation gives us the finality of everything that was created and made. Genesis is creation; Revelation is the re-creation, or, the consummation of... read more

In The Beginning God Genesis 1:1-10 INTRODUCTORY WORDS In these days of humanizing God, we need to give more time to the study of God's eternity. The Bible opens with the expression, "In the beginning God." Let us consider three things. 1. God's solitariness. God was before all things because He was in the beginning. He was the Creator, and was, therefore, before anything was created. The human mind cannot grasp this marvel, God existed alone in His triune personality before ever anything... read more

The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament Genesis 1:1-18 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We have a very interesting study to set before you today. Most of us realize how vital a part the Holy Spirit plays in our own experiences, both in life and in service, We need, however, to remember that the Holy Spirit, from the very beginning, held a prominent and indisputable place in the relationships of Deity toward men. There is a special sense in which the Holy Spirit is the representative of the Trinity among... read more

Creation Scenes Genesis 1:11-31 ; Genesis 2:1-2 INTRODUCTORY WORDS In Genesis 1:11 and Genesis 1:12 , we find the story of God's command to the earth to bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit. In all of this there is a wonderful depth of meaning affecting our spiritual lives. 1. The call of God to us is for fruitfulness. Whether it be in the natural earth or in the lives of saints, the great heart of God desires fruit. We remember how Christ said on one... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Genesis 1:26-31

The Beginning and the Beginning Again Genesis 1:26-31 ; Genesis 2:1-10 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The word Genesis means the "beginning." It is the first Book of the Bible, and in its opening chapters we have the story of the beginning of the original creation, of the earth renewed and blessed, of the creation of man and of woman, of the vision of the Garden of Eden, of the entrance of sin and Satan, of the pronunciation of the curse, etc. The Book of Revelation is the Book of the "new beginning."... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 1:1

THE BEGINNING‘In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.’ Genesis 1:1 I. What is meant by creation? The giving being to that which before was not. The expression, ‘the heavens and the earth,’ is the most exhaustive phrase the Hebrews could employ to name the universe, which is regarded as a twofold whole, consisting of unequal parts. Writing for men, Moses writes as a man. The moral importance of the earth, as the scene of man’s probation, is the reason for the form which the... read more
