Sixth Day or Eighth Day Creation pg 2

When the article and particle is used together, it is talking of a specific man. This would eliminate confusion of Gods word and realize that all the races didn’t come from one man. Another clue to the natural creation would be the job description given to the man in both chapters. In Genesis 1:28, “And god blessed them and God said unto them be fruitful and replenish the earth and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea and the fowl of the air, and everything that moveth upon the earth”. Notice a different job description given to the man in Genesis 2:5, “and every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field, before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground”. This specific Adam was given the job of tilling the ground. His job would be to soften the ground and prepare it for planting. In the writings of the New Testament, Jesus refers to Himself as the “son of man”. It is obvious that there are many sons born to different men before He came on the scene. The Greek language reads the same way as the Hebrew. The article and particle used are pointing to one specific individual. How else could such a statement the “son of man” be made? It just wouldn’t make sense. There is a lot of information given us in the early chapters of God’s word and it is important to build on a solid foundation. Mankind was created on the sixth day and God blessed the sixth day and said it was very good. God rested on the seventh day and continued His creation on the eighth day. The number 8 is used in Biblical Numeric’s and denotes resurrection, regeneration and to put on fatness. Notice Cain, being of the eighth day creation, rebelled against God and went to a city (already built and named) and took a wife of the sixth day creation. He didn’t marry his sister as some suppose.
