Rev. James Preus, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Ottumwa, Iowa, studies Genesis 2:1-4 on today’s episode. Rev. Preus talks about who the hosts are, the implications of God finishing work and resting, and what the Sabbath is and why it’s holy.

“In the Beginning was the Truth” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron featuring a step-by-step walk through the book of Genesis, focusing on the truth of Jesus, the story of salvation found throughout the book, and how we view our lives through the lens of God’s promises.

Genesis 2:1-4

The Seventh Day, God Rests

2 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2 And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done.3 So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation.

The Creation of Man and Woman

4 These are the generations
of the heavens and the earth when they were created,
in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.
