Curse

• Are you cursed?
• Are you cursing others?
• What is this thing we read about in the Bible called a curse?

We see the word curse first in Genesis 3 when God says the serpent is cursed above all living creatures because he plotted and tempted to get Adam and Eve to disobey God.

So the curse came "Because thou hast done this". We see the same word used when Adam and Eve were cursed because they disobeyed and denied the responsibility for what they did in that disobedience. And again when Cain slue his brother and hid the evidence of his sin in the ground.

But in Genesis 8 we see a completely different word translated into the English word curse. God seems to be saying that because man sacrificed that he would no longer trifle with or slight the earth. In both situation what we are calling a curse was imposed or lifted because someone chose to do something.

The Ten Commandments are not like the laws men make which include a range of punishments but are guiding statements warning that there are natural consequences built into creation for doing contrary to what is described in those Ten Laws.

In Genesis 49 we see this word ‘arar which includes the letters AlefReishReish (ררא) stating that the sons of Jacob Simeon and Levi are cursed because of their anger which brought them to killing and trespassing against another. This would bring division among themselves. Jacob was not cursing them nor was God. They were cursed because of their hearts and the actions they were led to take by what was deep in their hearts.
