====Covenants====
 
There are three Covenants in Genesis. The phrase Adamic Covenant often includes two covenants referred to as Edenic Covenant (Gen 1:26-30, 2: 16-17) and the Adamic Covenant (Gen 3:16-19). Together these covenants show God's intended grace and the consequences of sin. The Noahic Covenant (Gen 9) with its Rainbow sign, is a one sided covenant between God and humanity that God would not seek to destroy all life again. The Abrahamic Convenant is found in Genesis 12:1-3, 6-7; 13:14-17; 15; 17:1-14; 22:15-18, following the last of the fall stories. God promises Abraham land, to be father of many descendants, and to be a blessing to the nations.
