What does Genesis Chapter 1 verse 27 mean?

Answer 1

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Men and women are made with an eternal spirit capable of communing with their Creator, and also with a conscience, the ability to appreciate beauty, and to think in abstract terms.

Answer 2

It seems that Lamech is making an arrogant claim. It seems he thought that if a man was to kill Cain and so suffer vengence seven times over (verse 15), that he himself also should be advenged, only 77 times!

Answer 3

It describes the births of the twins Esau and Jacob (Israel):

Genesis 25:24-27New King James Version (NKJV)

24 So when her days were fulfilled for herto give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb. 25 And the first came out red. He was like a hairy garment all over; so they called his name Esau.[a]26 Afterward his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau's heel; so his name was called Jacob.[b] Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

27 So the boys grew. And Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was a mild man, dwelling in tents.
