Question 1

In biblical scholarship, how does the Priestly creation account in Genesis 1:1–2:4a fundamentally differ from the Yahwist account in Genesis 2:4b–25 regarding the creation of humanity?

Genesis 1 presents male and female created simultaneously in the divine image, whereas Genesis 2 depicts man formed first from dust and woman fashioned later from his rib. Genesis 1 portrays God forming man intimately with His hands, whereas Genesis 2 depicts creation through majestic spoken fiats. Genesis 1 places human creation prior to plant and animal life, whereas Genesis 2 places humanity as the absolute climax after all flora and fauna. Genesis 1 uses the personal covenant name YHWH Elohim, whereas Genesis 2 exclusively employs the cosmic title Elohim.

Genesis 1 presents male and female created simultaneously in the divine image, whereas Genesis 2 depicts man formed first from dust and woman fashioned later from his rib.

Question 2

What is the primary theological significance of Genesis 3:15, traditionally termed the 'Protoevangelium' in Christian theology?

It represents the first implicit promise of redemption, foreshadowing the ultimate victory of the woman's seed over the serpent.

It marks the institutional establishment of the Levitical sacrificial system for original sin.

Question 3

In Genesis 15, how did God solemnize His covenant (*berith*) with Abram regarding the promise of land and numerous descendants?

God passed between the divided halves of slaughtered animal carcasses as a smoking firepot and blazing torch. Abram constructed a monumental stone altar at Mount Sinai and sprinkled blood upon twelve pillars. God commanded Abram to offer his only son Isaac as a burnt offering upon Mount Moriah. Abram received two tablets of stone inscribed with the Ten Commandments by the finger of God.

Correct Answer:

God passed between the divided halves of slaughtered animal carcasses as a smoking firepot and blazing torch.

Question 4

What key theological theme is demonstrated through the narrative of the 'Akedah' (the Binding of Isaac) in Genesis 22?

Total faith and unreserved obedience to God, coupled with divine rejection of human sacrifice through the provision of a substitute ram. The divine mandate that firstborn sons must physically be sacrificed on sacred hilltops. The establishment of the Levitical priesthood under the leadership of Isaac. The moral justification of deception when dealing with pagan patriarchal neighbors.

Correct Answer:

'Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh' (I AM WHO I AM / YHWH), signifying dynamic, self-existent, and active presence. 'El Shaddai', signifying exclusively the deity of fertility and mountainous strongholds. 'Baal Berith', signifying the lord of the Canaanite agricultural treaty. 'Adonai Tzevaot', designating God solely as the military commander of angelic legions.
