In this first episode of this new series, The Wild Beasts, Aj and Amanda dig into Genesis and explore how man and beast were created on day 6 and that man was created after the beast thus making man the second born. Both were created from the dust but man was made into something higher than the beast.

Both man and beast were a living nephesh aka creature, but man had the spirit of God breathed into him and was given dominion over the first born. God then separates man and beast further by giving them different diets. The mans diet would consist of fruit and nuts while the beast would eat from the grass of the field, until the first born decided he would cause the second born to sale the birthright...
