'Man' in the Bible

And God said, Let us make man in our image, like us: and let him have rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every living thing which goes flat on the earth.

And God made man in his image, in the image of God he made him: male and female he made them.

In the day when the Lord God made earth and heaven there were no plants of the field on the earth, and no grass had come up: for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to do work on the land.

And the Lord God made man from the dust of the earth, breathing into him the breath of life: and man became a living soul.

And the Lord God made a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had made.

And the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to do work in it and take care of it.

And the Lord God gave the man orders, saying, You may freely take of the fruit of every tree of the garden:

And the Lord God said, It is not good for the man to be by himself: I will make one like himself as a help to him

And from the earth the Lord God made every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and took them to the man to see what names he would give them: and whatever name he gave to any living thing, that was its name.

And the man gave names to all cattle and to the birds of the air and to every beast of the field; but Adam had no one like himself as a help.

And the Lord God sent a deep sleep on the man, and took one of the bones from his side while he was sleeping, joining up the flesh again in its place:

And the bone which the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman, and took her to the man.

And the man said, This is now bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh: let her name be Woman because she was taken out of Man.

For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.

And the man and his wife were without clothing, and they had no sense of shame.

And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.

And the voice of the Lord God came to the man, saying, Where are you?

And the man said, The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me the fruit of the tree and I took it.

And the man gave his wife the name of Eve because she was the mother of all who have life.

And the Lord God said, Now the man has become like one of us, having knowledge of good and evil; and now if he puts out his hand and takes of the fruit of the tree of life, he will go on living for ever.

So he sent the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden he put winged ones and a flaming sword turning every way to keep the way to the tree of life.

And the man had connection with Eve his wife, and she became with child and gave birth to Cain, and said, I have got a man from the Lord.

And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, give ear to my voice; you wives of Lamech, give attention to my words, for I would put a man to death for a wound, and a young man for a blow;

This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day when God made man, he made him in the image of God;

Male and female he made them, naming them Man, and giving them his blessing on the day when they were made.

And the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will be a hundred and twenty years.

And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.

And the Lord had sorrow because he had made man on the earth, and grief was in his heart.

And the Lord said, I will take away man, whom I have made, from the face of the earth, even man and beast and that which goes on the earth and every bird of the air; for I have sorrow for having made them.

These are the generations of Noah. Noah was an upright man and without sin in his generation: he went in the ways of God.

And destruction came on every living thing moving on the earth, birds and cattle and beasts and everything which went on the earth, and every man.

Every living thing on the face of all the earth, man and cattle and things moving on the face of the earth, and birds of the air, came to destruction: only Noah and those who were with him in the ark, were kept from death.

And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.

And for your blood, which is your life, will I take payment; from every beast I will take it, and from every man will I take payment for the blood of his brother-man.

Whoever takes a man's life, by man will his life be taken; because God made man in his image.

Then said the Lord, This man will not get the heritage, but a son of your body will have your property after you.

And he will be like a mountain ass among men; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him, and he will keep his place against all his brothers.

Then Abraham went down on his face, and laughing, said in his heart, May a man a hundred years old have a child? will Sarah, at ninety years old, give birth?

And they said, Give way there. This one man, they said, came here from a strange country, and will he now be our judge? now we will do worse to you than to them; and pushing violently against Lot, they came near to get the door broken in.

And the older daughter said to her sister, Our father is old, and there is no man to be a husband to us in the natural way:

But God came to Abimelech in a dream in the night, and said to him, Truly you are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man's wife.

So now, give the man back his wife, for he is a prophet, and let him say a prayer for you, so your life may be safe: but if you do not give her back, be certain that death will come to you and all your house.

She was a very beautiful girl, a virgin, who had never been touched by a man: and she went down to the spring to get water in her vessel.

And the man, looking at her, said nothing, waiting to see if the Lord had given his journey a good outcome.

And when the camels had had enough, the man took a gold nose-ring, half a shekel in weight, and two ornaments for her arms of ten shekels weight of gold;

And with bent head the man gave worship to the Lord;

Now Rebekah had a brother named Laban, and he came out quickly to the man at the water-spring.

And when he saw the nose-ring and the ornaments on his sister's hands, and when she gave him word of what the man had said to her, then he went out to the man who was waiting with the camels by the water-spring.

Then the man came into the house, and Laban took their cords off the camels and gave them dry grass and food, and he gave to him and the men who were with him water for washing their feet.

And they sent for Rebekah and said to her, Are you ready to go with this man? And she said, I am ready.

So Rebekah and her servant-women went with the man, seated on the camels; and so the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.

And said to the servant, Who is that man coming to us through the field? And the servant said, It is my master: then she took her veil, covering her face with it.

And Abraham came to his death, an old man, full of years; and he was put to rest with his people.

And the boys came to full growth; and Esau became a man of the open country, an expert bowman; but Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.

And Laban said, It is better for you to have her than another man: go on living here with me.

If you are cruel to my daughters, or if you take other wives in addition to my daughters, then though no man is there to see, God will be the witness between us.

Then Jacob was by himself; and a man was fighting with him till dawn.

But when the man saw that he was not able to overcome Jacob, he gave him a blow in the hollow part of his leg, so that his leg was damaged.

And without loss of time the young man did as they said, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter, and he was the noblest of his father's house.

Then Isaac came to his end and was put to rest with his father's people, an old man after a long life: and Jacob and Esau, his sons, put him in his last resting-place.

Now the love which Israel had for Joseph was greater than his love for all his other children, because he got him when he was an old man: and he had a long coat made for him.

And a man saw him wandering in the country, and said to him, What are you looking for?

And the man said, They have gone away from here, for they said in my hearing, Let us go to Dothan. So Joseph went after them and came up with them at Dothan.

Now at that time, Judah went away from his brothers and became the friend of a man of Adullam named Hirah.

And there he saw the daughter of a certain man of Canaan named Shua, and took her as his wife.

Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, Go back to your father's house and keep yourself as a widow till my son Shelah becomes a man: for he had in his mind the thought that death might come to him as it had come to his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's house.

She took off her widow's clothing, and covering herself with her veil, she took her seat near Enaim on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was now a man, but she had not been made his wife.

And while she was being taken out, she sent word to her father-in-law, saying, The man whose property these things are, is the father of my child: say then, whose are this ring and this cord and this stick?

And now let Pharaoh make search for a man of wisdom and good sense, and put him in authority over the land of Egypt.

Then Pharaoh said to his servants, Where may we get such a man as this, a man in whom is the spirit of God?

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Seeing that God has made all this clear to you, there is no other man of such wisdom and good sense as you:

Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh; and without your order no man may do anything in all the land of Egypt.

Then they said, We your servants are twelve brothers, sons of one man in the land of Canaan; the youngest of us is now with our father, and one is dead.

And on the third day Joseph said to them, Do this, if you would keep your lives: for I am a god-fearing man:

The man who is the ruler of the country was rough with us and put us in prison, saying that we had come with a secret evil purpose.

And Judah said to him, The man said to us with an oath, You are not to come before me again without your brother.

But if you will not send him, we will not go down: for the man said to us, You are not to come before me if your brother is not with you.

And they said, The man put a number of questions to us about ourselves and our family, saying, Is your father still living? have you another brother? And we had to give him answers; how were we to have any idea that he would say, Come back with your brother?

Then their father Israel said to them, If it has to be so, then do this: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels to give the man, perfumes and honey and spices and nuts:

And take your brother and go back to the man:

And may God, the Ruler of all, give you mercy before the man, so that he may give you back your other brother and Benjamin. If my children are to be taken from me; there is no help for it.

So they took what their father said for the man, and twice as much money in their hands, and Benjamin, and went on their journey to Egypt, and came before Joseph.

And he said, How are you? is your father well, the old man of whom you were talking to me? is he still living?

Then every man quickly got his bag down and undid it.

And Joseph said, What is this thing which you have done? had you no thought that such a man as I would have power to see what is secret?

And Judah said, What are we to say to my lord? how may we put ourselves right in his eyes? God has made clear the sin of your servants: now we are in your hands, we and the man in whose bag your cup was seen.

Then he said, Far be it from me to do so: but the man who had my cup will be my servant; and you may go back to your father in peace.

Now these are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt; every man and his family came with Jacob.

Now a man of the house of Levi took as his wife a daughter of Levi.

Now when Moses had become a man, one day he went out to his people and saw how hard their work was; and he saw an Egyptian giving blows to a Hebrew, one of his people.

And he said to his daughters, Where is he? why have you let the man go? make him come in and give him a meal.

And Moses was happy to go on living with the man; and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses.

And Moses said to the Lord, O Lord, I am not a man of words; I have never been so, and am not now, even after what you have said to your servant: for talking is hard for me, and I am slow of tongue.

And they did so; and Aaron, stretching out the rod in his hand, gave a touch to the dust of the earth, and insects came on man and on beast; all the dust of the earth was changed into insects through all the land of Egypt.

And the wonder-workers with their secret arts, attempting to make insects, were unable to do so: and there were insects on man and on beast.

And it will become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and will be a skin-disease bursting out in wounds on man and beast through all the land of Egypt.

So they took some dust from the fire, and placing themselves before Pharaoh, Moses sent it out in a shower up to heaven; and it became a skin-disease bursting out on man and on beast.

Then send quickly and get in your cattle and all you have from the fields; for if any man or beast in the field has not been put under cover, the ice-storm will come down on them with destruction.

And the Lord said to Moses, Now let your hand be stretched out to heaven so that there may be an ice-storm on all the land of Egypt, on man and on beast and on every plant of the field through all the land of Egypt.

And through all the land of Egypt the ice-storm came down on everything which was in the fields, on man and on beast; and every green plant was crushed and every tree of the field broken.
