As we mentioned in the last post, the book of Genesis, is a book of origins or beginnings. We found many origins or “firsts” in Chapter 1, but there are more to be found in Chapter 2:
Verse 7 – First record of rest
Verse 8 – First garden
Verse 9 – First record of Tree of Life and Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil
Verse 10 – First record of a river
Verse 11 – First record of a job (Adam was to tend and keep the garden)
Verse 16 – First record of God giving a command to Adam.

Verse 21 – First surgery
Verse 22 – First woman
