Verb דמם ( damam) means to be still, noun דממה ( demama) denotes calmness and דמה ( dumma) denotes a silenced person. The root דמם ( ddm) is all about beginnings - or rather the simplicity from whence complexity arises - from being still before the noise starts to being monochromatic before color vision starts. This phrase כל־הי occurs six more times in the Bible and always denotes the whole of life (Genesis 8:21, Job 12:10, 28:21, 30:23, Psalm 143:2 and 145:16).įor a closer look at the most dominant Biblical sets and subsets, see our article on the name Hebrew. The word for mother is pretty much the same as that for nation, and the term "all-life" means precisely that: the whole of life, or the biosphere. Eve was called the "mother of all life" ( אם כל־הי Genesis 3:20). The largest set of living creatures is precisely that: living things (or perhaps living things that have a body made from the 'dust of the earth' - to distinguish these from angels, if you will). What follows may be a bit elaborate, but the bottom line is that contrary what tradition dictates, the Biblical model organizes reality according to sets and subsets. The first Adam became a living being the last Adam became a life-giving spirit ( 1 Corinthians 15:45). He is referred to as the set of which all members die, and Jesus as the sub-set of Adam in which all members shall be made alive ( 1 Corinthians 15:22).
#TADAM NAME FULL#
In the New testament, Adam ( Αδαμ) is mentioned by name 9 times see full concordance. Then he releases into them his Spirit and the church becomes a living being ( Acts 2). Then he gathers them into a vital composition. And indeed, God literally repeats Genesis 2:7 when he makes the church: he creates believers like the dust of the earth. Later still, the apostle Paul explained that all those who are of faith are Abraham's offspring ( Galatians 3:7). Much later, God promised Abraham that his offspring would be like the dust of the earth like that elementary material from which God made all living things (Genesis 13:16). What is certain is that God created the dust of the earth, gathered that dust into a vital composition, breathed into that composition his breath and Adam became a living being (Genesis 2:7). Here at Abarim Publications, however, we see all that slightly different see our article on The Chaotic Set Theory for the details. It's where the waters of the Jordan collected in a heap, so that Israel could pass over on dry land (Joshua 3:16).Īdam the man is the husband of Eve and the first human male according to tradition (Genesis 2:20). There are one man (as tradition dictates) and one town named Adam mentioned in the Bible.Īdam the town was situated in the territory of Manasseh, on the Jordan, close to Zarethan.
