In the very beginning of this chapter God reminds us that mankind is created in the divine image of their Creator.

Genesis 5:1 … In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;

Genesis 5:2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

Genesis 5:3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image;…

When you create something in your own image, such Adam and Eve begetting a child, what you bring forth is of the same substance as you.  You have the DNA of your ancestors in you and we, being made in the likeness of God, have the same substance of God in us as divine and miraculous expressions of life.
