Did God CUT DOWN the Heavens and the Earth?
***What Does Genesis 1:1,21 TRULY mean?
Here is Genesis 1:1,21 from the KJV. “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth…
God cut down the heavens and the earth to settle the war being wage in heaven during a previous age of the earth.
The Hebrew word that is translated as “created” also means to cut down.
And God is in the process of cutting down Satan, the fallen angels, and all evil and darkness in the world to make peace.
The Hebrew word translated as “whale” also means dragon. And the word translated and “great” also mean insolent.
This verse 21 could also be translated as God cut down the insolent dragons, speaking of Satan and the fallen angels.

Book 3 Chapter 4.
The DAY God SHOOK the Earth!
In other words, is the God INTENDED meaning of the creation account in Genesis chapter one and chapter two mean the following?
FIRST or in the beginning God CUT DOWN the heavens and the earth. And the earth BECAME void and without form.
And then, God RESTORED the earth to be inhabitable once again so that He could create another species of beings called man in his own image.
Some Christians teach that in Genesis 1:1, God created the earth BILLIONS of years ago in the eternity past, and then something happened in the GAP between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2 that CAUSED the earth to BECOME without form and void.
And that is what I used to believe, but now, I am seeing that God created the earth PERFECT billions of years ago in the eternity past.
And then, for billions of years the universe was PERFECT.
But around 15,000 years ago the angel called Lucifer waged a WAR against the other side of heaven in the universe.
And God CUT DOWN the earth around 15,000 years ago in Genesis 1:1 and the earth BECAME without form and void by God’s wrath to END that WAR in heaven.
So, there is not much difference between the GAP theory and the view I now prefer.
I say the view I prefer, because there is a hidden PROPHECY in Genesis 1:1.
And it does not make sense to me for God to give a prophecy of His Messiah BILLIONS of years ago in the eternity past.
But it makes perfect sense for God to hide a prophecy in Genesis 1:1 if the God INTENDED meaning is God CUT DOWN the heavens and the earth to STILL His ENEMIES.
Now, in chapter 3 of this book called “The PREVIOUS AGE of the Earth BEFORE God Created Man”, we learned that there is a WAR still going on between the angels.
We also learned that this war began in ANCIENT times BEFORE God created Adam and Eve, according to Deuteronomy 4:32 , Revelation 12:7-13, and many other verses of Scripture.
And since this war began BEFORE God created Adam and Eve, the first parents of the human race of beings, then Genesis 1:1 could very well be “translated” as follows.
“FIRST, God CUT DOWN the heavens and the earth.”
And thus, Genesis, 1:2 would be more correctly translated as, and the earth BECAME void and without form.
In other words, in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of God, I personally believe that the translators made an error by translating the Hebrew word “bara” in Genesis 1:1 as God “created” the heavens and the earth.
For you see, that “translation” makes it seem like God CREATED the earth VOID and without form as Genesis 1:2 reads in the King James Version of the Bible.
Here is Genesis 1:1,2 from the KJV translation.
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Genesis 1:2. And the earth WAS without form, and VOID; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”
And to most Christians, it does not make any sense for God to create the earth VOID and WITHOUT FORM.
Now, if you started reading chapter 4 first and you have not read the first three chapters of this book number 3, then I implore you to read the whole Book 3 called The PREVIOUS AGE of the Earth BEFORE God Created MAN!
Here is a link to the Table of Contents with links to all of the chapters.
Book 3 The Table of Contents! The Previous AGE of the Earth BEFORE God Created Man!
But for now, let us read some verses of Scripture that teach us of a AGE before God created man and the Son of Man a little LOWER than the angels for the very purpose of STILLING His ENEMIES, according to Psalm 8:1-6.
Please read 2 Kings 19:25.
“Have you not HEARD long ago how I have done it, (Or more correctly translated, have you not heard how or that long ago I have done it) and of ANCIENT times that I have formed it? (Or again, more correctly translated, and by reason of ancient times, or what happened in ancient times, I formed a RESOLUTION) Now, have I brought it to pass, that you should be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.”
In other words, Yahweh is asking the question, “Have you not heard what was done in ANCIENT times and how I formed a RESOLUTION?”
So then, what happened in ancient times before God created Adam and Eve, was that one side of heaven waged a WAR against the other side of heaven.
And God is IN BETWEEN this war where the CHERUBIMS are on two opposing sides.
In other words, Lucifer and his angels did the attacking or started the war AGAINST the good angels.
And the good angels are DEFENDING themselves and also defending God’s name that is being blasphemed by Lucifer and the fallen angels.
So then, after God and the good angels conquered or triumphed over the armies of Lucifer and the fallen angels, Almighty God sat down with His council of the Elohim and formed a RESOLUTION to bring an end to the WAR.
Again, the war is between the Cherubim on opposite sides of Yahweh’s SEAT of authority. Also keep in mind that God is being BLAMED for the war, because He is the Creator.
And thus, Yahweh ENTERED into JUDGMENT with His ANCIENT people to CLEAR His NAME from being POLLUTED by His enemies, the fallen Elohim, more commonly known as Satan and his angels, or Satan and the fallen angels.
Please read Isaiah 13:13-15.
“The LORD stands up to plead, and stands to JUDGE the people. (Or Yahweh stood upright to DEFEND, and DECREED to JUDGE the people)
Isaiah 3:14. The LORD will ENTER into JUDGMENT WITH the ANCIENTS of his people, and the PRINCES thereof: (In other words, in a sense, Yahweh is allowing Himself to be JUDGED along WITH the Elohim, the ANCIENT people whom He SET to be princess over different parts of His universe) FOR (Or the REASON for Yahweh judging the angels is that PART of) you have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
Isaiah 3:15. What mean you that you beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? Says the Lord GOD of hosts.”
Now, to me, this WAR that BEGAN in ancient times or during the PREVIOUS AGE of the earth BEFORE God created Adam and Eve.
Also, this war between the Cherubim is pictured in the design of the Ark of the Covenant with TWO Cherubim FACING each other with outstretched wings.
Let us go ahead and read the description of how the Ark of the Covenant was to be built.
Notice how the two Cherubim are at each end facing AGAINST each other.
Also, notice how the Cherubim on OPPOSITE sides are looking toward the MERCY SEAT, which carries the meaning of the ATONEMENT.
And to me, this speaks of the angels desiring to look into the plan of salvation of God, according to 1 Peter 1:11,12.
And this is why it was needed for the Messiah, the salvation of Yahweh, to be the RESOLUTION that God formed at the FOUNDATION of the earth in order to end the WAR.
You see, the meaning of the word “foundation” means to sit down together to SETTLE something.
Now, God’s plan required that His Messiah was needed to be SEEN of the angels as a godly man who was manifested to be a God in 1 Timothy 3:16.
For you see, in order for God to judge the world by the MAN that He ordained and resurrected from the dead, according to Acts 17:29-31, then the Messiah needed to be fully HUMAN.
Here is the description of the TWO Cherubim or two angels facing against each other looking at the mercy seat.
Exodus 37:6-9.
“And he made the mercy seat (Or Moses made the lid or covering of the Ark of the Covenant) of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length thereof, and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
Exodus 37:7. And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat; (So, to me, this means that Moses used one single piece of gold to beat out two separate Cherubim.
And each Cherubim is also one piece of gold that was beaten out.
And to me, this shows one side of heaven AGAINST the other side of heaven.
And thus, the RESOLUTION to END this war between the angels is the MERCY SEAT or the atonement, God’s plan of salvation)
Exodus 37:8. One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof. (Or more precisely, because of the angels being against each other was the reason for why God formed the mercy seat or the atonement as His resolution to end the war in heaven.
Thus, God used the FIGURES of the two Cherubim AGAINST each other, symbolizing ONE SIDE of heaven AGAINST the OTHER SIDE of heaven)
Exodus 37:9. And the cherubims spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even to the mercy seat ward were the faces of the cherubim.”
Let us take a look at some other verses of Scripture that teach us about this conflict between the angels that began in ANCIENT times during the age of the earth before God created Adam and Eve.
Judges 5:19-23.
“The kings came and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money.
Judges 5:20. They fought from heaven; (Or more precisely, they fought in heaven, speaking of the second heaven, which we call outer space, or an intergalactic war in space) the stars in their courses fought against Sisera. (The word stars in the Bible prophetically refers to the angels.
So then, the angels fought against other angels in the part of the universe called Sisera.
And, personally, I believe that this is speaking of a war in the galaxy having the literal star called Sirius, also known as the dog star.
But it is also called the “morning star” , one of the names of Satan.
In Egypt “Ses Ra” means servant Ra and servant of Ra. And Ra is one of the oldest and main deities of ancient Egypt, who was worshiped as the Son god, or the morning star)
Judges 5:21. The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, you have trodden down strength.
Judges 5:22. Then were the horse hoofs broken by the means of the pransing, the pransing of their mighty ones. (Or more precisely, by reason of the swift movement or attack, part of the attacking army was conquered.
We can see this in a correct translation of Job 38:7, which should read, “When the morning stars REJOICED together, and all the sons of God shouted for VICTORY?”)
Judges 5:23. Curse you Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse you bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD AGAINST the mighty.”
In other words, in verse 23, the angel of the Yahweh said to Meroz, either you repent and come back to be an aid or helper to Yahweh or you will be bitterly cursed.
Here is a quote from another website commenting on what the Jewish Talmud teaches regarding what the name “Meroz” means and what it is, according to some Jewish scholars. The emphasis is mine.
“According to the Talmud (Moed Katan 16a), Meroz is a certain planet in the stellar sphere, and because the mention of it is preceded by the phrase, “the stars in their course fought against Sisera,” it thus follows that Meroz must be defined as a celestial body whose inhabitants were cursed for refusing to do God’s will.”
In other words, Meroz was a part of the third of the rebellious fallen angels that waged a WAR against the authority of Yahweh’s throne that began in ANCIENT times before God created mankind.
Let us read some more verses of Scripture that teach us about this intergalactic WAR among the angels in outer space.
Keep in mind that Yahweh is against war and violence.
And also know beyond any shadow of a doubt that this war between the angels began in the ancient times with Lucifer and his rebellious angels that sided with him, who attacked the good angels.
And war, violence, and oppressing the human race of beings still continues in this present age of the earth, because of the deception and influence of Satan.
You can read Isaiah 3:2-12 on your own, I will only quote verses 13-15.
Isaiah 3:13-15.
“The LORD stands up to plead, (Or to DEFEND) and stands to JUDGE the people. (In other words, Yahweh pleaded with Lucifer to repent of his false accusation blaming God for the WAR, but when Lucifer refused, Yahweh decreed His judgment or charge against Lucifer and the fallen angels with treason.
Keep in mind that the everlasting fire was “originally” prepared only for the Devil and his angels, according to Matthew 25:41)
Isaiah 3:14. The LORD will ENTER into judgment WITH the ANCIENTS of his people, and the PRINCES thereof: (WHY?) FOR (Or because) you have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
Isaiah 3:15. What mean you that you beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? Said the Lord GOD of hosts.”
So then, clearly, the ancient people that Yahweh will JUDGE are the fallen angels.
And consequently, hell has also ENLARDED herself due to the disobedient children who do the works of the Devil and reject God’s salvation.
Let us continue to look at the ancients who were BEFORE God created man upon the RESTORED earth some 6,000 years ago.
We already covered Isaiah 44:7 in chapter 2, but it is worth repeating that Yahweh is challenging the ancient people to bring forth their “witnesses”.
Let us read Isaiah 44:7 with Isaiah 45:51 and Isaiah 46:10 as one thought.
And that one thought is God challenging the ancient people, speaking of the fallen angels, to bring forth their witnesses to try to defend their accusation of blaming Yahweh for creating them with rebellious natures.
Isaiah 44:7 with Isaiah 45:21, and Isaiah 46:10 together.
“Isaiah 44:7. And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order FOR Me, since I appointed the ancient people? (Or more correctly, seeing that I CHARGED the ancient people) And the things that are coming, and shall come, let THEM shew unto THEM…
…Isaiah 45:21. Tell you, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: Who has declared this from ancient time? Who has told it from THAT time? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me; (Or there is no god WITHOUT me) a just God and a Savior; there is none beside (Or WITHOUT) me…
…Isaiah 46:10. Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times (Or BECAUSE of what happened in ANCIENT time and what will happen again because of my ENEMY) the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:”
Now let us look at the verses that teach us that God CUT DOWN that ancient or OLD Dragon called the Devil and Satan.
Isaiah 51:9.
“Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Are You not it that has cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon?”
The Hebrew word “Rahab” means the PROUD. And the Hebrew word that is translated as the DRAGON in this verse is the SAME Hebrew word “tannı̂yn” that is translated as “WHALES” in Genesis 1:21.
And clearly, that Dragon filled with PRIDE was WOUNDED in ancient times by the arm of Yahweh.
In other words, the arm of Yahweh in ancient times was the good angels who CUT DOWN that INSOLENT Dragon in ancient times.
And the arm of Yahweh during the world to come is Jesus, according to Isaiah 40:10.
Let us read Genesis 1:21 with the other meanings of the Hebrew words that are “translated” as God “created the great whales”.
Here is a more correct translation of Genesis 1:21.
“And God CUT DOWN that INSOLENT Dragon, and every living creature that SWARMS, in ORDER THAT the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”
When we understand that God has an ENEMY and that God is in the process of JUDGING His enemy by His good and faithful WITNESSES, then we can see that God is LOVE.
And the only reason for God being a CONSUMING FIRE is to destroy evil once and for all time.
Now let us read all of Genesis chapter 1 with this UNDERSTANDING that God is RESTORING the earth and that God created MAN and the Son of MAN in order to JUDGE the angels.
Genesis 1:1-31 with my own fresh new translation.
“AT FIRST God CUTDOWN the heaven and the earth. (With a great FLOOD in His anger and wrath against the UPROAR of one third of the angels waging a war against His throne)
Genesis 1:2. And the earth BECAME a WASTED DESOLATION on the surface, and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface and DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness called the NIGHT of disembodied OBSCURE unseen invisible evil spirits BECAUSE OF the ANGER of God wrath AGAINST the UPROAR of the ABYSS.
Genesis 1:3. And God said, he shall BECOME light: and he is BECOMING light.
Genesis 1:4. And God SAW (Or God FORESAW His word of PROPHECY of His Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. (Do you see the shadow and figure of God dividing or SEPARATING the light from the darkness as being the HIDDEN Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus PROPHECY dividing the children of the DAY from the children of the NIGHT?)
Genesis 1:5. And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Genesis 1:6. And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. (The word “waters” is used PROPHETICALLY as being PEOPLE, according to Revelation 17:1,15.
And the firmament is a FIGURE of Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus who will DIVIDE the sheep, the children of the DAY, from the goats, the children of the NIGHT, in the world to come)
Genesis 1:7. And God made (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. (In other words, the waters BELOW and UNDER the firmament in the sky are the UNSAVED PEOPLE that will go into the Millennial reign of Jesus in their MORTAL bodies to be taught of the Lord.
And the waters in the sky are the SAVED PEOPLE who will be caught up into the AIR to meet with Jesus in the clouds of glory)
Genesis 1:8. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Genesis 1:9. And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. (Here we see that God caused all of the FLOOD waters under heaven to be gathered together into one place so that the land could DRY.
The land was already there, but it was under the water. Now, during the Millennial reign of Jesus, the people of the nations will SERVE the unsaved children of Israel.
And the cities will have to be rebuilt)
Genesis 1:10. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called the Seas: (The word “sea” is used prophetically as the wicked people. And when God creates the new earth there will be NO MORE SEA) and God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:11. And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. (Here again, we see that the SEED was still upon the earth, but it could not grow under the water of the great FLOOD the covered the earth)
Genesis 1:12. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. (Again, after God DRIED out the land, the plant life that was already on the earth from the precious age began to grow again)
Genesis 1:13. And the evening and the morning were the third day.
Genesis 1:14. And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to DIVIDE the DAY from the NIGHT; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: (And speaking prophetically, let the LIGHTS in heaven be for WITNESSES for appointed times.
In other words, there will be two DAYS of judgment separated by YEARS, 1000 years)
Genesis 1:15. And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. (And prophetically the LIGHT of the gospel will be preached from the AIR during the Millennial reign of Jesus, according to Revelation 14:6)
Genesis 1:16. And God made (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) two great lights; (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) the greater light to rule the DAY, and the lesser light to rule the NIGHT, the stars also.
Genesis 1:17. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
Genesis 1:18. And to rule over the DAY and over the NIGHT, and to DIVIDE the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:19. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Genesis 1:20. And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creatures that have life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Genesis 1:21. And God CUT DOWN, the INSOLENT Dragon, and every living creature that SWARMS (Or gathers in troops), in ORDER THAT the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. (Again, PROPHETICALLY, verse 21 is speaking of God using Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus to CUT DOWN the INSOLENT DRAGON called the Devil and Satan, according to Revelation 12:7-9.
For you see, the Hebrew words translated as “great” also means “INSOLENT”.
And the Hebrew word translated as “whales” also means “DRAGON”.
And at the coming of Messiah Jesus, he will BIND Satan and cast that old Dragon into the bottomless pit for 1000 years. And Jesus will CUT DOWN the fallen angels and SLAY many WICKED men at his coming as well.
But naturally, I believe that many of the fish in the FLOOD waters survived like in the FLOOD in the days of Noah.
It says the waters brought forth the creatures that HAVE LIFE.
So, that tells me that many of the birds and fish survived the great flood that is called the Luciferian flood by some Christians.
Please read the study called D-28. The PRE-ADAMIC LUCIFERIAN FLOOD!)
Genesis 1:22. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
Genesis 1:23. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
Genesis 1:24. And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. (Again, this tells me that there were creatures LIVING on the earth BEFORE God CUTDOWN the earth in the FLOOD of His wrath against the DARKNESS of EVIL)
Genesis 1:25. And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, (In other words, there were animals of many different KIND on the earth when God CUTDOWN the earth with a great FLOOD.
And God is not RESTORING many of those same KINDS of animals to live AGAIN on the earth as they did in the previous Luciferian AGE before Lucifer rebelled and made war against God) and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creeps upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:26. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.
Genesis 1:27. So God created (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.
Genesis 1:28. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.
Genesis 1:29. And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Genesis 1:30. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to everything that creeps upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
Genesis 1:31. And God saw everything that He had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”
Now let us read from the LITERAL translation about the TRUE SEVENTH DAY in Genesis 2:1-3.
Genesis 2:1-3 from the LITERAL translation.
“And they are BEING FINISHED the heavens and the earth and all the host of them.
Genesis 2:2. And He IS FINISHING DURING the SEVENTH DAY the work of Him He did, and He is ceasing in the seventh day from all work of Him which He did.
Genesis 2:3. And God is BLESSING (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) day of seventh. And He is making Holy (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) him THAT IN him He ceased from work of Him which He CREATED (His) God to do”
Now let us read a NEW FRESH translation of John 1:1,12-14 using OTHER meanings of the Greek words.
A more CORRECT meaning of John 1:1,12-14.
“AT FIRST was the SAYING, and the SAYING was with THE God, and the SAYING was A God...(To rule FOR Yahweh in the NAME of Yahweh during the world to come for 1000 years)
...John 1:12. But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on Hisname: (Speaking of the now glorified Son of MAN, Jesus, as being or more precisely, becoming the NAME of Yahweh)
John 1:13. WHO was born,(Speaking of being born as a human being FIRST and then being born-again as the FIRSTBORN from the DEAD to become the FIRSTBORN among many BRETHREN that he gave power to ALSO become sons of God, was BORN) not of blood, (Or not having a HUMAN biological father) nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
John 1:14. SO THEN, the SAYING was made to become FLESH and lived among us. MOREOVER, we beheld his glory, the glory IN THAT MANNER of the only BEGOTTEN of the Father, FULL of JOY and truth.”
The Apostles of Jesus understood Jesus as being MADE by God and then CROWNED with glory and honor after God begot His human Son from the dead and gave him eternal life.
That is why they wrote in Hebrews 12:2 that God SET a JOY before Jesus to endure the cross.
In chapter 5, I will give some MORE Scripture EVIDENCE of a PREVIOUS AGE of the earth BEFORE God created Adam and Eve.
