Overview

If you stand back a little bit from Genesis 1 and 2, you’ll see that perhaps the main thing the first two chapters of the Bible are about is work, job, vocation.

We’re told in Genesis 2 that God sends the human race into the world to work. He put them in the garden to work it and take care of it.

With regard to the idea of work and vocation, there is 1) an assumption, 2) a direction, 3) a burden, and 4) a provision made.
