    The book of Genesis teaches us about the coming of man and how he has lived on earth. God created the earth and gave it to man‚ who he made in his image‚ to rule. Repeatedly man does not meet God’s expectations and in return he is punished. The fall in the Garden of Eden and the Great Flood are two major illustrations of this happening. Something to note is that even with all of man’s faults and God’s punishments‚ God excuses man and gives him a new chance to redeem himself. God gives sense that
