26 And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness:

I was at my Genesis bible study where Naji, the speaker, mentioned that “Us” in Genesis was seen by the Fathers as the Divine Cousel, where the Persons of the Trinity agreed on what would happen, namely that The Father would send His Son and die because God knew we would fall.

I thought that was beautiful and liked to share it with you all.

Well, I do not know who is Naji but
we know that God knows the beginning and the end.
The “us” in the context of Genesis 1 and explained by Naji is “Religious Piety”…true in one sense but

I actually affirms the :Trinitarian" or “Family” aspect of the ONE God as explained by most Theologians…
 
The Genesis text itself only gives indication that they were discussing creation of man, one is reading all that other stuff into the text. But, your friend may be simply reading these scriptures back into Genesis text. Some of these texts below indicate, his interpretation of gospel events occurred **Before **the foundation of the world, that is creation.

Matthew 13:35
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

Matthew 25:34
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you **from **the foundation of the world:

John 17:24
Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

Ephesians 1:4
According as he hath chosen us in him **before **the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Hebrews 4:3
For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

Hebrews 9:26
For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

1 Peter 1:20
Who verily was foreordained **before **the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

Revelation 13:8
And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
