Should people rebel against God's command to multiply and fill the earth?
People should not rebel against Gods command to multiply and fill the Earth. The bible clearly says rebellion is a sin.
God's command was for man to multiply fill the earth?
Why would God command that man multiply and fill the earth and at the same time not supply adequate food and resources too keep people from dying terrible deaths? More specifically, God said, " .. be fruitful and multiply upon the earth". An analogy, to 'be fruitful' means for man to have and raise families. To 'multiply upon the earth' means to populate the earth. To paraphrase, when God was finished creating the earth He then said, " Now you may start having families, by doing so you will be populating the earth".
What did god say to noah after the flood?

What did God mean in Genesis 1 v28 by 27replenish the Earth27 - was Earth populated before?
No. The Bible does not say that the earth was populated before. It was created 'in the beginning'(Genesis 1:1) then sat 'formless and empty'(Genesis 1:2) until it was time to prepare it for life, form mankind from it's soil, and start the human family.At Genesis 1:28, the word 'REPLENISH' is misleading in some translations, and does not accurately convey the meaning of the scripture. If you look at most other translations, this word is translated as 'FILL' instead of 'replenish':"...Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it..." (NKJV)"...Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earthand subdue it..." (NIV)"...Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it..." (ESV)"...Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it..." (DRA)"...Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and master it...."(CEB)"...Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it..."(DARBY)"...Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it..."(HCSB)At Genesis 1:28 we see God giving the first man and woman instructions to FILL the earth with family.Another Answer:There is a theory called the 'Gap Theory' that states that there is an amount of time between 'In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth,' in Genesis 1:1 and the following verses. God does not create in vain:Isaiah 45:18New King James Version (NKJV) 18 For thus says the Lord,Who created the heavens,Who is God,Who formed the earth and made it,Who has established it,Who did not create it in vain,Who formed it to be inhabited:"I am the Lord, and there is no other.The Hebrew words used in this chapter suggest God 'renewing' the face of the Earth as it is found in darkness and under water - yet it is physically there!Psalm 104:30New King James Version (NKJV) 30 You send forth Your Spirit, they are created;And You renew the face of the earth.So God in verse 28, as noted above, gives mankind dominion over the planet and all on it, telling them to fill it with their offspring and according to some, since Adam to now there have been approximately 100 billion humans born.Was there something else before mankind. The fossil evidence suggests there was but the Scripture is silent on this eon of time and only speaks of the age of man.
