Genesis 2:16
“The Lord God commanded the man”
Here, we have God’s command. He is concerned about us. He gives us
His instructions about how we are to live. He knows what is best for us.
Who are we to argue with Him?
Genesis 2:17
“you shall surely die.”
“you shall surely die.”
God is warning us. You can go your own way – but you will find that
it is the way of death: “There is a way that seems right to a man, but
in the end it leads to death” (Proverbs 14:12).
Genesis 2:18
“a helper suitable for him”
We are not left to go it alone. As well as receiving the Lord’s help,
we are to help each other. Give help. Receive help. In everything,
never forget this: “My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and
earth” (Psalm 121:2); “Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker
of heaven and earth” (Psalm 124:8).
