However, a stream of some sort would rise from the earth (אֶרֶץ) and water the entire surface of the ground (אֲדָמָה, adamah). And then Yahweh God (יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהִ֜ים) formed 'man' (אָדָם, adam) from the soil/dust of the ground (אֲדָמָה, adamah). 4 This wordplay seems most likely.

2012年6月3日 · There is an alliteration in the Hebrew. Each of the first four lines starts with the letter aleph. Each of the last words in each line have an aleph, in the first syllable of "Ephraim" and "Adamah" (lines 1 and 3), and in the last syllable of "Israel" and "Zeboiim" (lines 2 and 4). This would not work with "Sodom" and "Gamorrah".

2017年4月3日 · אדמה, adamah, soil, ground; The difference between שדה, sadeh, and the other two words, ארץ, aretz and אדמה, adamah is that שדה is used idiomatically, in an adjectival prepositional phrase (סמיכות כבולה), whereas aretz and adamah are used as simple nouns with their common meanings.

4 There most likely is a play on meaning between the masculine word 'adam (אָדָם) to the feminine word 'adamah (אֲדָמָה) that means earth, ground, or land (HALOT, BDB). The words are distinctly noted in Genesis 2:7 during the detailed description of mankind's creation.

2024年4月26日 · First and foremost, literal meaning of the word Adam is not 'man'. Footnote under Gen 2:7(NIV) explains thus: Hebrew for man (adam) sounds like and may be related to the Hebrew for ground (adamah); it is also the name Adam (see verse 20). That said, the terms man, the man and Adam are interchangeable in so far as Genesis is concerned. Why ?

The “adamah” is alienated in his empty mind from the life of God and has no understanding…no knowledge of God. The understanding is darkened as the "mist" rises up from the earth. Adam was taken from among the earthly men as the receiving of the Spirit of God set him apart from the rest… from the natural, fleshly, unregenerate mankind ...

The “adamah” represents the people of the world who live after the flesh only….fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind and are by nature children of wrath. When God formed Adam from the dust of the adamah, He breathed the breath of life ( plural “lives) into his nostrils (which can mean “wrath” also).

2017年11月9日 · Gen 7.19-20 says every mountain under the sky was at least fifteen cubits underwater. I don't see how that's remotely possible except under the premise of a worldwide flood.

The word הארץ ('the earth') appears a very large number of times in the six-day creation account spanning Genesis 1:1 to 2:1. It seems clear to me that the usages in 1:1 and 2:1 are special - the...

2019年6月19日 · The “ground”…the “adamah”…the people of this world who do not have His Spirit….is cursed for his (Adam’s) sake. All men (the “adamah”) die through Adam as death passed upon all men. Cursed is the ground (the adamah = common mankind) for “thy sake” …which is the Hebrew word (abuwr) for “crossed over, transit".
