The Verse That Shakes the Bible’s Creation Story You’ve Been Misreading Genesis

Who is God talking to when He says, “Let us make man in our image” in Genesis 1:26? In this video, we dive into the Jewish exegesis of this famous verse and uncover what the peshat — the plain meaning of the text — reveals.

Many interpretations, especially from Midrash and Christian theology, suggest angels, the Trinity, or even Jesus as possible candidates. But what happens when we set those aside and focus strictly on what the Torah itself says?

We explore:

*The shift from plural to singular between Genesis 1:26 and 1:27
*Why don't angels, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit fully fit the text
*The difference between making and creating
*Why this matters for understanding the creation of Adam

This video explores the mystery of human creation in Genesis from a Hebrew textual perspective.
