Genesis - E-book - ePub

The earth is the protagonist, as is the man who connects to it to experience it as a place and origin by the fact that we are born in it. It is the departure of every being, as well as its return, that we end in it earnest. Being is born and upon the earth, and in it is due. Adam himself receives his name from her and is master over her to subdue and work. The curse on the earth stems from human action and this connection is alienated in silent stubbornness.
Understanding this bond makes us walk with quality the axis of the role of the earth as unity with God. Decisive dynamics occur and traverse much of Genesis, which in this poem has a bias of this narrative. Man's relationship with earth is a judgment of fear and respect.
