Numerical Expositions: Genesis 2:5

And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew:  for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.

-- Gen. 2:5 (KJV)

Before there were people upon this earth, plants and herbs covered the land.  This fact has been proven to be true as archaeologists are still discovering plant formations that are over 40 million years old all over the world.  One of the factors as to why these plant formations have been located is because mankind was not around to destroy any of this ancient vegetation.

Numerical Analysis:  The numerical pattern for this verse is 2,5,7.  (2) To be delivered, realize that planting is a process.  (5) To stay in God's presence, realize that growth is a process.  (7) To be complete, realize that God refreshes and replenishes the earth.
