‭Review‬

‭Chapter 1,2,3 ctc‬

‭1. Man is special to God because only "man was created in God's image. Man's special‬
‭characteristics include language and thought, awareness of the difference between‬
‭right and wrong, and freedom to make choices.‬
‭2. Evolution downplays man's special characteristics.‬
‭3. After the Flood, God commanded mankind to multiply and fill the earth, but mankind‬
‭disobeyed and remained in the region of Sumer:. There they began to build a civilization‬
‭in rebellion against God. To restrain sin and to slow the growth of human power;, God‬
‭intervened and confused man's language.‬

‭1. The call of Abraham marked the beginning of God's plan for the salvation of mankind.‬
‭God chose Abraham to father a great nation, Israel, out of whom Jesus Christ, the‬
‭Savior of mankind, would come.‬
‭2. B.C means "before Christ" and A.D. is the abbreviation for the Latin phrase anno‬
‭Domini, "in the year of our Lord." The first coming of Jesus Christ was so important‬
‭that it became the main dividing point of history.‬

‭1.Egypt had a class system. The ruling class was made up of the nobles and priests; the‬
‭middle class was made up of the craftsmen, scribes, and soldiers; and the lower class‬
‭was made up of the farmers and slaves. Moving down the organization of the pharaoh's‬
‭assistants to the vast majority, we find that really all Egyptians were in a sense the‬
‭pharaoh's assistants.‬
‭2. Each plague involved some force or aspect of nature that the Egyptians worshiped.‬
‭For example, the Nile turned to blood, the skies brought forth hail and locusts, and the‬
‭sun was darkened. Frogs, lice, and flies-_ sacred creatures to the‬
‭Egyptians--tormented the people who worshiped them. Boils appeared upon animals,‬
‭men, and even priests, the special servants of the gods. By the tenth plague, Egypt's‬
‭gods had been humbled, and all the world could see that the God of Israel has power‬
‭over His creation.‬
