So why did He hate Easu before he was in the womb?
Genesis 1:28 "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, ad over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
focus on replenish,for some to be (re)it had to had been...Also notice this is not what He told (THE)man Adam
I just told you. See post #(52).
Stranger
Scripture shows us that God hated Esau but Where in scripture is it said that God hated Esau before he was in the womb?
I don't know exactly the point you're trying to make here. The word translated replenish doesn't mean refill as some claim. I don't know if that was what you were trying to state or not.
I did,still didn't address the question
Romans 9:11 "(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of Him That calleth;"
Romans 9:12 "It was said unto her, "The elder shall serve the younger."
Romans 9:13 "As it is written "Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated."
So what does it mean?
So what does it mean?
Strong's supports the word "fill", not replenish.Hebrew interlinear Bible or Bible dictionary will tell you, the word translated as ‘replenish’ in Genesis 1:28 is the Hebrew verb מלאו (mil’û), which simply means fill. Not refill.
I do not believe Adam and Eve were the first beings to inhabit planet earth, and whatever happened back there, suggests a punishment wherein the earth became formless and void.
The problem is the bible in itself is not the full story, it seems to be missing a lot of little details, like if Adam and Eve where the first, where did all the cities come from, even Noahs flood, God destroyed the world, whos world, most cultures on the earth know the flood story, and many say that after the flood these men came from the sea and taught us civilization, I suppose you can look at it as if you live on an island and it was totally flooded, your world would be destroyed, who knows, only God has the bigger pictureI was brought up in a chapel that taught the 'Gap Theory' but to the best of my remembrance its scriptural basis was very thin.
From archeological evidence, we know that the dinosaurs and other animals lived thousands of years before Adam and Eve. But as for human-like creatures, I don't think there is any impelling evidence to support that.I was brought up in a chapel that taught the 'Gap Theory' but to the best of my remembrance its scriptural basis was very thin.

That would only be a guess, we seems to do a lot of that, guessing.Yeh, the first 12 chapters of Genesis covers a period of 2500 years!

I checked over 50 translations, and KJV is the only one that says "replenish". All of the other translations say "fill".
Notwithstanding, I do not believe Adam and Eve were the first beings to inhabit planet earth, and whatever happened back there, suggests a punishment wherein the earth became formless and void.
