Commentary on Genesis 1:11 (Summary)

Genèse 1:11 (NEG79)

11 Puis Dieu dit: Que la terre produise de la verdure, de l'herbe portant de la semence, des arbres fruitiers donnant du fruit selon leur espèce et ayant en eux leur semence sur la terre. Et cela fut ainsi.

The land emerges. Everything is still bare and empty. We read in Genesis 1:2 that the earth was without form and void. Now the earth is no longer desolate, even though it is still empty. The Lord speaks again. He calls the trees and plants into existence. The most beautiful variety of colours and flowers appear on the earth. We should note that the Lord did not just plant seeds in the ground.
