What was the month of the new corn in Genesis?



Okay, now we'll read Exodus. Who were the people that God dealt well with (DR version)?

I already gave what I believe to be the correct answer. Abraham. My reason being in the garden Adam and eve were not separated from God, no need for prayer. In Gen.4:9 you have Cain answering God but it doesn't sound much like a prayer. In Gen. 4:16 we have Cain leaving the Lord's presence. We have no one speaking to God in Genesis until we get to Gen. 4:26 where it says Men begin to invoke God by name (but it doesn't say who). We have God speaking to Noah but I can't find Noah speaking to God. Abraham invokes God's name in Gen.12:8.  In Ge. 15 we have Abraham and God in dialogue and by Gen. 18 Abraham's bargaining with God over the fate of Sodom. That's why I believe the first person recorded to pray to God, (petition him), and was in dialogue with him was Abraham. Again, it is my opinion, I am ready , willing and able to be proved wrong Grin. Either way it sure is fun looking for little nuggets in the good book, don't you think?
Sorry if I didn't phrase my question properly, it's a problem between my head and my fingers. shrug

When I read your reasoning it sounds so reasonable I wonder that I didn't see it! That's great George!

A good and holy evening to you!

Yes it is!

I'm learning more every question!  Grin

If you keep on reading Genesis in 20:17 it says" So Abraham prayed unto God and God healed Abimelech and his wife , and his maidservants."

I gather Shin is going back to Genesis, not so much for the answers but to familiarize himself with the Word of God. 
I did the same after "throwing in the towel" Grin

Which type of fish is popularly known as "St. Peter's fish," ?

N.B.
It is a popular fish even here. Whenever we eat fish over here, it is likely to be that particular one.
The answer is ----Tilapia  Grin
I feel happy that Jesus ate this particular fish, i.e
on the shore of lake Tiberius, grilled over a  over a charcoal fire... I can almost smell the delicious aroma;  yummy Grin
