    Genesis 2:16

    Early Christian Commentary - (A.D. 100 - A.D. 325)

    Anf-01 ix.vii.xxi Pg 8
    Gen. ii. 16.

    that is, Eat ye from every Scripture of the Lord; but ye shall not eat with an uplifted mind, nor touch any heretical discord. For these men do profess that they have themselves the knowledge of good and evil; and they set their own impious minds above the God who made them. They therefore form opinions on what is beyond the limits of the understanding. For this cause also the apostle says, “Be not wise beyond what it is fitting to be wise, but be wise prudently,”4625

    4625


    Anf-01 ix.vii.xxiv Pg 2
    Gen. ii. 16, 17.

    he then, lying against the Lord, tempted man, as the Scripture says that the serpent said to the woman: “Has God indeed said this, Ye shall not eat from every tree of the garden?”4649

    4649


    Anf-03 iv.xi.xxxviii Pg 5
    Gen. ii. 16.

    and then again to the generation which followed next after the flood He enlarged the grant: “Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; behold, as the green herb have I given you all these things,”1750

    1750


    Anf-03 v.v.iii Pg 15
    Gen. ii. 16.

    Thenceforth He, who was previously God only, is the Lord, from the time of His having something of which He might be the Lord.  For to Himself He was always God, but to all things was He only then God, when He became also Lord. Therefore, in as far as (Hermogenes) shall suppose that Matter was eternal, on the ground that the Lord was eternal, in so far will it be evident that nothing existed, because it is plain that the Lord as such did not always exist. Now I mean also, on my own part,6164

    6164 Et ego.

    to add a remark for the sake of ignorant persons, of whom Hermogenes is an extreme instance,6165

    6165 Extrema linea. Rhenanus sees in this phrase a slur against Hermogenes, who was an artist.  Tertullian, I suppose, meant that Hermogenes was extremely ignorant.

    and actually to retort against him his own arguments.6166

    6166 Experimenta.

    For when he denies that Matter was born or made, I find that, even on these terms, the title Lord is unsuitable to God in respect of Matter, because it must have been free,6167

    6167 Libera: and so not a possible subject for the Lordship of God.

    when by not having a beginning it had not an author. The fact of its past existence it owed to no one, so that it could be a subject to no one.  Therefore ever since God exercised His power over it, by creating (all things) out of Matter, although it had all along experienced God as its Lord, yet Matter does, after all, demonstrate that God did not exist in the relation of Lord to it,6168

    6168 Matter having, by the hypothesis, been independent of God, and so incapable of giving Him any title to Lordship.

    although all the while He was really so.6169

    6169 Fuit hoc utique. In Hermogenes’ own opinion, which is thus shown to have been contradictory to itself, and so absurd.



    Anf-03 iv.ix.ii Pg 6
    See Gen. ii. 16, 17; iii. 2, 3.

    Which law had continued enough for them, had it been kept. For in this law given to Adam we recognise in embryo1142

    1142 Condita.

    all the precepts which afterwards sprouted forth when given through Moses; that is, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God from thy whole heart and out of thy whole soul; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself;1143
