“Then the Lord God Jehovah formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils, the breath of life, and the man became a living being.”
This being the account, does it mean then that the creation of man was a two-fold process? Man was created by, the body was given life by, Jehovah. Since that time then, the animation that was given Adam, was and remains, the one and the same gift that we experience today. This begs the question then, that our existence, far from being independent of Jehovah, is in fact part of His being. Likewise, Jesus was aware of his past - Luke 2:49. “Why were you searching for me? he asked. “Did you not know I had to be in my father‘s house?”
If this is the case then, does this explain the reading of our hearts, the secrets, the prayers, aspirations and the sense of and development of love within ourselves being an open book to Jehovah? Where else does the sense of such attributes arise from and appear to a degree in many, even all mammalian life? Does this add understanding to the fact that Jesus took on the entire sin of the world of men at the time of his death - the total culmination of satan‘s betrayal?
If there is any substance in the above and that life is in fact an extension of Jehovah’s spirit, how does Jehovah keep aloof from our condemnation? We as humans do not create life, but pass it on. Jehovah makes it plain that life does not belong to us in his law on the use of blood. “I am the life giver”. Life is passed on by man via a living cell, the completion of such with that of the woman creates a living body rather than new life but it is intrinsically referred to such for convenience.
