Genesis chapter 2 describes the creation of man, the Garden of Eden, and God’s direct involvement in life. God prepares the earth with water, forms man from dust, and breathes His spirit into him. He plants Eden with trees that are beautiful and good for food, including the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, establishing human freedom and choice.
Adam tends the garden and names the animals, exercising creativity in partnership with God, but finds no companion. God forms woman from his rib, creating unity and equality. Marriage becomes the union of man and woman as one flesh, open and without shame.
The account shows that love and obedience require free will. God calls humanity not to compulsion but to relationship. The mission given in Eden continues: believers share the gospel, make disciples, and witness through the Spirit’s power. The struggle is not against people but against spiritual forces, requiring prayer, strength in God, and steadfastness.
