Genesis 1

Creation

God created

Overcame the chaos

Genesis 1:1 ESV

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

Hamilton says:

Specifically then, Gen. 1:1—“When God began to create the heavens and the earth”—is the equivalent of the first two lines of Enuma elish: “When above, the heaven had not been named (and) below, the earth had not been called by name.”

Genesis 1:26 ESV

Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Revelation 2:24 ESV

But to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching, who have not learned what some call the deep things of Satan, to you I say, I do not lay on you any other burden.
