Biblical truth standing on its spiritual head to get our eternal attention.

Genesis 3:9-19 – Chiasm

I know not every one believes the Bible has chiasms in it; but for those who do (and maybe for those who don’t), here is a simple one I noticed today:

Genesis 3:9-19
A – God to Adam
B – God to Eve
C – God to Serpent
B’ – God to Eve
A’ – God to Adam

A chiasm would explain the order of this whole scene which is also based upon authority: Male-Female-Animal-Female-Male. It also has as the central part what is considered a messianic prophecy.
