Rev.12: Read all. (KJV)  1: And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

 

Rev12:11. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

 

Rev 12:12. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them.

Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

 

 Where were the rest of the 'sons of God' after that rebellion and before the cleansing of that age of Gen.1:2, and the setting up of this earth age?

 

Gen 2:2    And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.

Gen 2:3   And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all His work which God created and made.

      The Samaritan Pentateuch (Old Testament), and The Septuagint Version of the Hebrew Old Testament have 'sixth day' instead of 'seventh' in verse Gen.2:2.¹  The 'seventh day' is when God rested, the Sabbath, which is our Saturday and is reckoned from Friday dusk to Saturday dusk.

Gen 2:4    These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,

Important

      This word 'generations' is 'towledah' in Hebrew, and means 'family history, or descendants’ (Strong's 8435). This is very important because it is going to single out a 'particular family history' coming up later in this same Chapter, the 'family history' of the man named 'Adam', or 'eth'Ha'adham' in the Hebrew manuscripts. Thus our Holy Bible is mainly a 'family history' of God's 'chosen' people, the 'elect', as they come into contact with the Gentile nations. That same 'family history', or 'generations' of the 'chosen' are the ones whom God selected to put His Word down in writing, for the sake of all families upon the earth, not only the 'chosen'. It is important to keep this idea in mind for what is to follow, which is a greater purpose for this 'particular Adam' being made separate from the 'adam' of Gen.1.

Gen 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 2:6   But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

      In Gen.1:26-27 there is mention of the 'creation' of man ('adam' without the article meaning 'mankind' in verse 26, or the various races of mankind, but with the article in verse 27), and that their specific domain or dominion was, the 'field' of the world over all the animals and plant life upon the earth. Nothing was ever said about 'tilling' the soil there. God is getting us prepared for a revelation dealing with a specific 'Adam' in the next few verses.
     In the next verse of Gen.2:6, the word 'But' is 'ed' in the Hebrew, meaning 'mist' (Strong's 108). The word 'And' should have been used there instead of 'But' by the translators, to carry all the
