Episode 210: Subdue the Earth-Exploring God’s Command to Adam, Biblical Meaning, and the Mystery of a Fallen World

Show Notes

God created man to replenish and subdue the earth. While we could do an entirely different episode on the word replenish, we will focus on subdue today. What was Adam to subdue, and why did it need subduing? Does it simply point to creation, or is the verse in Genesis indicative of a prior history on earth, a world that was? Let’s examine the Scriptures!

Bible Mysteries is an educational ministry podcast exposing the ancient spiritual battle in the modern world. We seek to reveal the secrets in the Scriptures that current satanic world systems are trying to suppress. Join us each week as we discuss things in the Bible the world doesn’t want you to know.

Notes:

Subdue: כָּבַשׁ kaw-bash’ - to subject, subdue, force, keep under, bring into bondage

make subservient, dominate, tread down 

to be subdued

Subdue: ὑποτάσσω hoop-ot-as'-so- to arrange under, to subordinate 

to subject, put in subjection 

to subject one's self, obey 

to submit to one's control 

to yield to one's admonition or advice 

to obey, be subject

Scriptures:

All Scripture references are from the King James Version of the Bible.  

Genesis 1:27-28, Joshua 18:1, 2 Samuel 8:10b-12, Micah 7:19-20, Psalm 47:1-4, Philippians 3:20-21, Colossians 2:13-15, 1 Corinthians 15:24-28, Ephesians 6:12-17, Romans 14:11-12, Isaiah 45:20-25

Takeaway:

From the Word of God, man was created to subdue the fallen angelic realm. It is unclear how this would have been accomplished, but we can surmise that God would have equipped Adam to do so. However, Adam’s fall introduced sin into the human condition. Man was no longer equipped to subdue the enemy because of sin and death, but Christ was victorious over both! He will subdue all enemies under His feet shortly!
