Jesus is the 2nd Adam

Genesis 2 on into 5

Desire: Used 3 times in the Scripture. Means desire, or longing. From a word that means to stretch after something, or to run for something. 2 verses seem to make sense to us and we get contextually a meaning that is not altogether accurate. 8669

Gen 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire [shall be] to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. [This is a result of sin. This is NOT God’s original plan! As we have so often been told. She was his helper, now, he has to shoulder it alone.]
Sgs 7:10
I [am] my beloved's, and his desire [is] toward me.
Gen 4:7
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee [shall be] his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
You shall have the preiminence. Very clearly preiminence. This is not the right to abuse. This is not the right to LORD over somene, it’s just that you will have the upperhand, the blessing, the better position.

Galatians 3:19

Romans 5:8 from one man sin reigned. But Jesus is one who saves all.
By one man

d) the name of the more important part (the Pentateuch), is put for the entire collection of the sacred books of the OT

He spoke it to Adam, not to Eve. She knew about it, but it was spoken to Adam.


I Corinithians 15:21-22.

Discussing resurrection of the dead. Some say there is none. Paul is pointing out that if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Jesus didn’t resurrect and we are all still in our sin. All born of him must die. That was the punishment stated before he partook of the fruit. If you eat of it you shall surely die. All from Adam must die.

He goes on from here saying that all things are under Jesus’ authority, like Adam, but this includes all things spiritual and heavenly as well. And that there will come a point in time when Jesus will lay all that is under His authority down at God’s feet.

1 Timothy 2:14 This is a discussion about order in church. It is a discussion not about who was responsible for the fall of human kind. It cannot be taken that way. He is merely pointing out that at the Fall, an order was established. If you have a problem with that, talk to God.

Ahab Isaiah 7:14

Isaiah 9, a child (birth) is born, a son (adoption) is given
