Special significance of the creation of male and female in the image of God: 1. It is only after God has created man that He says of all He has made: it is “very good” (1:31). This is not simply because God’s creative task is finished but because mankind is the pinnacle of all He has made. 2. The creation of man is introduced differently than other products of creative work, with the personal and deliberative expression, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.” 3. The one God who creates man as male and female deliberately uses plural references of himself (e.g., “Let Us,” “Our image,” “Our likeness”) as the creator of singular “man” who is plural “male and female.” 4. The “image of God” is stated three times in 1:26-27 in relation to man as male and female but never in relation to any other part of creation (are angels created in the image of God?). 5. The special term for God’s unique creative action, bara, is used three times in 1:27 for the creation of man in His image as male and female. 6. Man is given a place of dominion over all other created beings on the earth, thus indicating the higher authority and priority of man in God’s created design. 7. Only the creation of man as male and female is expanded and portrayed in detail as recorded in Gen. 2.

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the tops of the broccoli into small flowerets; julienne the stems into
strips roughly 1/4 x 1 inch. 
1.  In a 10-inch skillet, melt the butter or heat the oil over medium-low
heat.  Add the onion and saute slowly until almost limp but not brown,
about 6 to 7 minutes. Add the tamari/shoyu soy sauce and the tomato. Cook,
stirring often, until the tomato's juice has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
2.  Transfer the saute to a soup pot.  Deglaze the saute pan with a little
of the stock, and add the pan contents, plus the remainder of the stock, to
the soup pot. Add the pumpkin or squash puree, the maple syrup or honey,
salt, and a touch of freshly ground black pepper. Heat, stirring often.
3.  Separately, in a small pot with a tightly fitting lid, steam the
broccoli flowerets and stems until tender-crisp (they should be a bright
green), about 3 to 4 minutes.
4.  Stir the steamed broccoli into the soup, then stir in the cream. Let
the soup cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until hot and the
flavors have blended, 8 to 10 minutes. Do not let the soup boil. Serve
hot.
Serves 8 as a first course.  By adding some diced cooked potatoes with the
broccoli it will serve 4 as an entree.
