Ge 1:29 And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.

30 "Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food"; and it was so.


31 Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Moses here shows that it is God who provides man with food. In pagan religions in Egypt, they worshiped a false god of vegetation. Moses is refuting that belief here.

In pagan religions, man brought food to their gods. Here Moses shows that it is God who provides food for man. Man was a vegetarian before the Fall.

Ancient religions say that matter is inherently evil. The Bible says otherwise. God surveyed His creation and was very satisfied with it. It was very good.
