Book Of Genesis Quotes

• Now, if the book of Genesis is an allegory, then sin is an allegory, the Fall is an allegory and the need for a Savior is an allegory - but if we are all descendants of an allegory, where does that leave us? It destroys the foundation of all Christian doctrine-it destroys the foundation of the gospel.

• A Creator must exist. The Big Bang ripples and subsequent scientific findings are clearly pointing to an ex nihilo creation consistent with the first few verses of the book of Genesis.

• The vocation of being a 'protector' [. . .] means protecting all creation, the beauty of the created world, as the Book of Genesis tells us and as Saint Francis of Assisi showed us [. . .] In the end, everything has been entrusted to our protection, and all of us are responsible for it. Be protectors of God’s gifts!

• Es una actitud de superioridad. Somos superiores al resto de la vida. El libro del Génesis dice: 'Creced y multiplicaos y dominad las aves del cielo y los animales, etc.'. Tú lo dominas; es tuyo; haz lo que quieras con él. No sé cuántos años tiene ese texto, pero representa una actitud que probablemente se puso en marcha con el comienzo de la agricultura. Antes de eso, los cazadores-recolectores eran gente más gentil que la agricultura.

• The first command given by God when Adam and Eve were pitched out of the Garden of Eden in the Book of Genesis is, "Be fruitful and multiply, and subdue the Earth." We've been trying to do that for a long time, and now the Earth is fighting back. I'm not sure that we're going to survive as a species.

• What if the book (of Genesis) is describing a dawning awareness of the world? The anthropologist Edmund Leach has argued that the 'bit' or binary digit is the basic unit of pre-logical communication. Genesis is a sprouting of 'bits', ie elementary binary distinctions.

• Since religion intrinsically rejects empirical methods, there should never be any attempt to reconcile scientific theories with religion. An infinitely old universe, always evolving, may not be compatible with the Book of Genesis. However, religions such as Buddhism get along without having any explicit creation mythology and are in no way contradicted by a universe without a beginning or end. Creatio ex nihilo, even as religious doctrine, only dates to around AD 200. The key is not to confuse myth and empirical results, or religion and science.

• En lo que respecta a todo el debate actual sobre la evolución frente a la creación, Jesús afirmó que los primeros capítulos del Génesis eran exactos cuando dijo: "¿No habéis leído que el que los creó desde el principio, varón y hembra los hizo?" (Mateo 19:4). Adán y Eva no aparecieron en escena tras miles de millones de años de mutaciones y evolución. No. Dios los creó desde el principio, tal como Moisés relató en el libro del Génesis.

• El momento del relato de Adán y Eva en el libro del Génesis es cuando se dan cuenta de que están desnudos e intentan cubrirse con hojas de higuera. Me pareció una alegoría perfecta de lo que ocurrió en el siglo XX con el modernismo literario. El modernismo literario surgió de la idea de "¡Dios mío! ¡Estoy contando una historia! No puede ser, porque soy una persona inteligente. ¡Soy una persona literaria! ¿Qué voy a hacer para distinguirme?... Gran parte del modernismo parece surgir del miedo a ser considerado un narrador ordinario.

• When I went to high school in Australia, I was exposed to textbooks that outlined evolutionary ideas - such as ape-like creatures turning into people. I recognized the conflict between evolutionary ideas and a literal reading of the book of Genesis.

• El símbolo de un verdadero cosmos es, de hecho, un tipo particular de diseño, al que se hace referencia en el libro del Génesis en la frase "Dios creó al Hombre a su imagen y semejanza". Esta "imagen divina", cuyas características debemos estudiar en detalle, se encuentra en todos los niveles y es el sello distintivo de un cosmos.

• La era predarwiniana había llegado a ser considerada como una Edad Oscura en la que los hombres seguían creyendo que el libro del Génesis era un tratado científico estándar, y que las únicas adiciones al mismo eran la demostración de Galileo de la simple observación de Leonardo da Vinci de que la tierra es una luna del sol, la invención de Sir Humphrey Davy de la lámpara de seguridad, el descubrimiento de la electricidad, la aplicación del vapor a fines industriales, y el penny post.

• Sabemos por el libro del Génesis que Dios creó al hombre y a la mujer "a su imagen y semejanza", y sabemos por la primera carta de Juan que "Dios es Amor". Por tanto, el hombre y la mujer están hechos a imagen y semejanza del Amor. Esto no es difícil de ver. Fíjate en el diseño de los cuerpos masculino y femenino. Están hechos el uno para el otro. De hecho, ninguno tiene sentido sin el otro.

• If I as a geologist were called upon to explain briefly our modern ideas of the origin of the earth and the development of life on it to a simple, pas- toral people, such as the tribes to whom the Book of Genesis was addressed, I could hardly do better than follow rather closely much of the language of the first chapter of Genesis.

• It is important to insist on the historical truthfulness of the narrative of the fall of Adam and Eve. Just as the account of the creation of Adam and Eve is tied in with the rest of the historical narrative in the book of Genesis, so also this account of the fall of man, which follows the history of man's creation, is presented by the author as straightforward, narrative history

• When we talk about the environment, about creation, my thoughts turn to the first pages of the Bible, the Book of Genesis, which states that God placed man and woman on earth to cultivate and care for it. And the question comes to my mind: What does cultivating and caring for the earth mean? Are we truly cultivating and caring for creation? Or are we exploiting and neglecting it?
