Appears 6,517 times in Scripture
“And the LORD God commanded him, “You may eat freely from every tree of the garden,”
“that you will not harm us, just as we have not harmed you but have done only good to you, sending you on your way in peace. And now you are blessed by the LORD.””
“Now no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth, nor had any plant of the field sprouted, for the LORD God had not yet sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground.”
“And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and He brought them to the man to see what he would name each one. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.”
“Then the LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.”
“So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep, and while he slept, He took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the area with flesh.”
“This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made them.”
“Then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being.”
“Out of the ground the LORD God gave growth to every tree that is pleasing to the eye and good for food. And in the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.”
“The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.””
