Génesis 2:4 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 2:4

These [are] the generations of the heavens and the earth,
when they were created
That is, the above account, delivered in the preceding chapter, is a history of the production of the heavens and earth, and of all things in them; the creation of them being a kind of generation, and the day of their creation a sort of birthday; see ( Genesis 5:1 ) ( Matthew 1:1 )

in the day that the Lord God made the earth, and the heavens;
meaning not any particular day, not the first day, in which the heavens and the earth were created; but referring to the whole time of the six days, in which everything in them, and relating to them, were made. Here another name is added to God, his name "Jehovah", expressive of his being and perfections, particularly his eternity and immutability, being the everlasting and unchangeable "I am", which is, and was, and is to come: this name, according to the Jews, is not to be pronounced, and therefore they put the points of "Adonai", directing it so to be read; and these two names, "Jehovah Elohim", or "Adonai" and "Elohim", with them make the full and perfect name of God, and which they observe is here very pertinently given him, upon the perfection and completion of his works.

Génesis 2:4 In-Context

2 Cuando llegó el séptimo día, Dios ya había terminado su obra de creación, y descansó
de toda su labor.

3 Dios bendijo el séptimo día y lo declaró santo, porque ese fue el día en que descansó de toda su obra de creación.

4 Este es el relato de la creación de los cielos y la tierra.
El hombre y la mujer en el Edén
Cuando el Señor
Dios hizo la tierra y los cielos,

5 no crecían en ella plantas salvajes ni grano porque el Señor
Dios aún no había enviado lluvia para regar la tierra, ni había personas que la cultivaran.

6 En cambio, del suelo brotaban manantiales
que regaban toda la tierra.
