Jesus in Genesis 2
The heavens and the earth were finished,( Jesus CRIED "It is FINISHED") and on the 7th day God ended His work which He had done/made; and He rested on the 7th day from all His work which He had DONE/made. John 19:28 "After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now DONE/accomplished that the scripture might be fulfilled..."
We see Jesus in Genesis doing all the work in CREATING everything without mans help.
Then we see Jesus Re-making all things new, creating us in Him by His "work" of atoning sacrifice.
He sees it is good and it is complete/FINISHED. He hangs His Holy Head and gives up the ghost, entering into sleep/death/rest.
The beauty of the picture of the Garden with lots of growth and the river of water running verse 6 streams came UP out of the ground and watered the garden in which grew the trees(Jesus) that were pleasing to the eyes and good for food. Jesus is pleasing to the EYES OF OUR HEARTS, and GOOD for food for our SOULS. The River(Jesus) verse 10 flowed from the Garden of Eden(Jesus)"the perfection of beauty"Ps 50:2. In John chapter 4 Jesus tells the woman at the well of the River that HE IS, that never runs dry. In verse 14 .."whoever drinks the water that I shall give him will NEVER thirst again. (Hey! NOW that's what I call a RIVER of unending thirst quencher. Better than Gatorade on a 90 degree day working hard in the hot sun! )
The 7th verse speaks to us of the man being made of the ground of earth and Jesus breathing into his nostrils the breath of life; and he became a living soul. (So that he could get up and work in the garden.) Just like Jesus BREATHED on them in the upper room and then said, "Receive the Holy Spirit" which was for the "work of the reconciliation ministry" that He was commissioning them to do. Showing His little lost lambs that ALL is forgiven IN JESUS. HE is our Righteousness.
Jesus in Genesis 2 is The Creator. He is the RECREATOR of new life in us.
Jesus in Genesis 2 is The Garden of Eden ,Beautiful Beyond Description.
Jesus in Genesis 2 is The River flowing up out of the ground that gives LIFE and SUSTAINS life.
Jesus in Genesis 2 is The Breather of Life into mankind...for the Heavenly Work He calls each of us to do.
Hallelujah! WHAT A SAVIOR, JESUS JESUS JESUS
