    Notes_____How did the world begin? According to the first chapters of Genesis, there was a moment when God first let the brush of His creative energy move across an empty expanse of space. Colors, shapes, texture, and design—all emerged from the mind of the Creator and filled the emptiness. We are given a glimpse of those first moments of creation when God in His infinite artistry brought forth light, energy, and life, creating a universe where before there had been nothing. Why did He start? Why did He place man, an image of Himself, in the midst of a world already teeming with movement and life? And how does the world in which we now live fit with His original design? In Dr. Stuartʼs first lecture we are led to consider the beginnings of life as we know it and the divine purposes of the One who brought it into being.

    O l d T e s t a m e n t S u r v e y I : L e c t u r e O n e

    Plan of Redemption – God’s design for bringing people back to Himself after the Fall.

    Notes_____Orienting Data for Genesis

    Content: Origins of the world, humanity and Israel

    Human author: Moses, using records from before his time

    Date of composition: 1400 BC or 1220 BC, depending on difficult chronology issues

    Historical coverage: Creation through the death of Jacobʼs son Joseph in Egypt

    Emphases: 1. Godʼs nature and purposes 2. The reasons why humans exist 3. The first divine covenants 4. The nature of sin 5. The perpetual corruption of human society 6. Godʼs intolerance of sin 7. Godʼs choice of a people 8. Godʼs plan of redemption 9. Godʼs working through sinful people

    What is the significance of using a series of origin stories as the structure for the book?

    Why does the story slow down once Abraham is introduced?

    What are the two main emphases of the creation story?

    What does it mean that humans are Godʼs “idol”?

    Notes_____What do the first chapters of Genesis have to say to our work-ori-ented culture? How do our own priorities line up with Godʼs as they are revealed in this text?

    Outline of Genesis (Origin Stories)

    1:1-2:3 Prologue (overview of creation, using seven-day prose poem)

    2:4-4:26 Origin stories of “the heavens and the earth” (including the Garden of Eden and the first family of human beings)

    5:1-6:8 Origin stories of the family of Adam (including the account of human-spirit marriages and their result)

    6:9-9:29 Origin stories of Noah (including the flood, the covenant with Noah and the account of Hamʼs sin)

    10:1-11:9 Origin stories of Shem, Ham, and Japheth (including a list of the nations of the world, and the account of the Tower of Babel)

    11:10-26 Origin stories of Shem (focusing on his lineage as com-pared to those of his brothers)

    11:27-25:11 Origin stories of Terah (focusing on his son Abraham, including Abrahamʼs call and covenant promise, Abrahamʼs relationship with his wife Sarah, his nephew Lot, his sons Ishmael and Isaac, and most of all his relationship with God)

    25:12-18 Origin stories of Ishmael (including his twelve sons)25:19-35:29 Origin stories of Isaac (including the ways Isaac copied

    Abraham, the rivalry between Jacob and Esau, Jacobʼs knowledge of God, Jacobʼs marriage to Rachel and Leah, his sons, his being named Israel, the reconciliation be-tween Jacob and Esau, the avenging of the rape of Jacobʼs daughter Dinah)

    36:1-37:1 Origin stories of Esau (including the royal lineage of the Edomites, Esauʼs descendants)

    37:2-50:26 Origin stories of Jacob (focusing on Joseph, whom his brothers conspired to be rid of, and who ended up as vice-roy in Egypt)

    I n t h e B e g i n n i n g . . .

    “One of the things Genesis can do for people is help them to realize they don’t have to be perfect to be a saint...that biblical people were very imperfect, that God used them in spite of their sins, not because of their pure righteousness.”

    一、 創世記:起初…

    這世界是怎麼開始的? 根據創世記的第一章,上帝在某一瞬間,在浩瀚空洞的宇宙中,開始以祂創

    造大能的手筆揮舞其間。從造物主心中湧出的色彩、形

    狀、氣質與設計充滿了整個空間。我們得以驚鴻一瞥,看

    到創造的開始,上帝以祂無限的優雅帶出了光、能量、與

    生命,開創了前所未有的世界。祂為什麼這麼做? 祂為什麼把具有祂形像的人放在這生氣蓬勃的地球上? 我們目前生活的世界是否合乎祂當初的計劃? 在 Dr. Stuart 的第一堂課裡,我們要來思考我們所瞭解的生命的起源,和造物主

    屬天的目的。

    救贖的計劃 ─ 上帝在人類墮落後,重新帶領人歸向於祂的計劃。 選民 ─上帝的子民,被選擇與祂永遠同在,成就祂的目的。

    創世記的作者是誰? 創世記的三個主題是什麼?

    筆記

    “……自從墮落以後,人類所處的矛盾景況是,人類擁有

    的知識多於他們知道該如何

    處理。”

    以一系列的起源故事來作為這本書卷的結構有什麼特殊的

    意義?

    創世記導引資料

    內容:世界、人類和以色列的起源

    為什麼故事的節奏在亞伯拉翰出現之後慢了下來? 創造故事中強調的兩個主題是什麼? 「人是上帝的 “偶像"」是什麼意思?

    想一想你所認識的一個朋友,如果他知道上帝有一個任務

    一、 创世记:起初…

    这世界是怎么开始的? 根据创世记的第一章,上帝在某一瞬间,在浩瀚空洞的宇宙中,开始以祂创

    造大能的手笔挥舞其间。从造物主心中涌出的色彩、形

    状、气质与设计充满了整个空间。我们得以惊鸿一瞥,看

    到创造的开始,上帝以祂无限的优雅带出了光、能量、与

    生命,开创了前所未有的世界。祂为什么这么做? 祂为什么把具有祂形像的人放在这生气蓬勃的地球上? 我们目前生活的世界是否合乎祂当初的计划? 在 Dr. Stuart 的第一堂课里,我们要来思考我们所了解的生命的起源,和造物主

    属天的目的。

    救赎的计划 ─ 上帝在人类堕落后,重新带领人归向于祂的计划。 选民 ─上帝的子民,被选择与祂永远同在,成就祂的目的。

    创世记的作者是谁? 创世记的三个主题是什么?
