Creation and Nature:
Humans are uniquely created beings, fashioned by God in His own image. The account of human creation is found in Genesis 1:26-27 : "Then God said, 'Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness, to rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it.' So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them." This passage highlights the distinctiveness of humans, endowed with the image of God, which encompasses aspects such as rationality, morality, and the capacity for relationship with the Creator.

Purpose and Dominion:
Humans were given a specific role and purpose within creation. Genesis 1:28 states, "God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth.'" This mandate, often referred to as the "Cultural Mandate," establishes humans as stewards of the earth, responsible for its care and management under God's sovereignty.

The Fall and Sin:
The narrative of the Fall in Genesis 3 describes the entrance of sin into the human experience. Adam and Eve's disobedience resulted in a fractured relationship with God, introducing sin and death into the world. Romans 5:12 explains, "Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned." This original sin has affected all of humanity, leading to a universal need for redemption.

Redemption and Salvation:
Despite the fall, God's plan for redemption is central to the biblical narrative. The promise of a Savior is first hinted at in Genesis 3:15 , where God declares enmity between the serpent and the woman, and between their offspring. This is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who, according to 1 Corinthians 15:21-22 , brings life: "For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive." Through faith in Christ, humans are offered salvation and reconciliation with God.

Human Dignity and Worth:
The biblical view of humanity affirms the inherent dignity and worth of every person. Psalm 8:4-5 reflects on this: "What is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him? You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor." This dignity is rooted in being made in the image of God and is independent of any human achievement or status.

Eternal Destiny:
The Bible teaches that humans have an eternal destiny, either in the presence of God or separated from Him. John 3:16 offers the hope of eternal life: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." This promise underscores the eternal significance of human life and the importance of faith in Christ for salvation.

Moral Responsibility:
Humans are moral agents, accountable to God for their actions. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 concludes, "When all has been heard, the conclusion of the matter is this: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgment, along with every hidden thing, whether good or evil." This accountability emphasizes the importance of living in accordance with God's will and commands.

SACRIFICE, HUMAN

hu'-man: As an expression of religious devotion, human sacrifice has been widespread at certain stages of the race's development. The tribes of Western Asia were deeply affected by the practice, probably prior to the settlement of the Hebrews in Palestine, and it continued at least down to the 5th century B.C. At times of great calamity, anxiety and danger, parents sacrificed their children as the greatest and most costly offering which they could make to propitiate the anger of the gods and thus secure their favor and help. There is no intimation in the Bible that enemies or captives were sacrificed; only the offering of children by their parents is mentioned. The belief that this offering possessed supreme value is seen in Micah 6:6, where the sacrifice of the firstborn is the climax of a series of offerings which, in a rising scale of values, are suggested as a means of propitiating the angry Yahweh. A striking example of the rite as actually practiced is seen in 2 Kings 3:27, where Mesha the king of Moab (made famous by the Moabite Stone), under the stress of a terrible siege, offered his eldest son, the heir-apparent to the throne, as a burnt offering upon the wall of Kir-hareseth. As a matter of fact this horrid act seems to have had the effect of driving off the allies.

Human sacrifice was ordinarily resorted to, no doubt, only in times of great distress, but it seems to have been practiced among the old Canaanitish tribes with some frequency (Deuteronomy 12:31). The Israelites are said to have borrowed it from their Canaanite neighbors (2 Kings 16:3 2 Chronicles 28:3), and as a matter of fact human sacrifices were never offered to Yahweh, but only to various gods of the land. The god who was most frequently worshipped in this way was Moloch or Molech, the god of the Ammonites (2 Kings 23:10 Leviticus 18:21; Leviticus 20:2), but from Jeremiah we learn that the Phoenician god Baal was, at least in the later period of the history, also associated with Molech in receiving this worship (Jeremiah 19:5; Jeremiah 31:35).

As in the case of the Canaanites, the only specific cases of human sacrifice mentioned among the Israelites are those of the royal princes, sons of Ahaz and Manasseh, the two kings of Judah who were most deeply affected by the surrounding heathen practices and who, at the same time, fell into great national distress (2 Kings 16:3 2 Chronicles 28:3 2 Kings 21:6 2 Chronicles 33:6). But it is clear from many general statements that the custom was widespread among the masses of the people as well. It is forbidden in the Mosaic legislation (Leviticus 18:21; Leviticus 20:2-5 Deuteronomy 18:10); it is said in 2 Kings 17:17 that the sacrifice of sons and daughters was one of the causes of the captivity of the ten tribes. Jeremiah charges the people of the Southern Kingdom with doing the same thing (Jeremiah 7:31; Jeremiah 19:5; Jeremiah 31:35); with these general statements agree Isaiah 57:5 Ezekiel 16:2; 20:31; 23:37; Psalm 106:37 f. A study of these passages makes it certain that in the period immediately before the captivity of Judah, human sacrifice was by no means confined to the royal family, but was rather common among the people. Daughters as well as sons were sacrificed. It is mentioned only once in connection with the Northern Kingdom, and then only in the summary of the causes of their captivity (2 Kings 17:17), but the Southern Kingdom in its later years was evidently deeply affected. There were various places where the bloody rite was celebrated (Jeremiah 19:5), but the special high place, apparently built for the purpose, was in the Valley of Tophet or Hinnom (ge-hinnom, Gehenna) near Jerusalem (2 Chronicles 28:3; 2 Chronicles 33:6). This great high place, built for the special purpose of human sacrifice (Jeremiah 7:31; Jeremiah 32:35), was defiled by the good king Josiah in the hope of eradicating the cruel practice (2 Kings 23:10).

The Biblical writers without exception look upon the practice with horror as the supreme point of national and religious apostasy, and a chief cause of national disaster. They usually term the rite "passing through fire," probably being unwilling to use the sacred term "sacrifice" in reference to such a revolting custom. There is no evidence of a continuance of the practice in captivity nor after the return. It is said, however, that the heathen Sepharvites, settled by the Assyrian kings in the depopulated territory of the Northern Kingdom, "burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim" (2 Kings 17:31). The practice is not heard of again, and probably rapidly died out. The restored Israelites were not affected by it.
