Book 3 Chapter 7. A Fresh NEW Look at Genesis 1:1!

D-29. A Fresh New Look at Genesis 1:1 

God RESTORED the Earth in Genesis 1:3-31!

***What Does Genesis 1:1,2 TRULY mean?

Here is Genesis 1:1.2 from the KJV.  “Genesis 1:1.  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.”

There are no less than THREE interpretations of Genesis 1:1,2.

Interpretation #1.

The Young Earth Creationist understanding is that the earth and the entire universe was created around 6,000 years ago in six literal 24 hour days.

Interpretation #2.

The Old Earth Creationist understanding is that the earth was created in the eternity past along with the entire universe and ONLY man was created around 6,000 years ago when God RESTORED the heavens and the earth in Genesis 1:3-31.

Interpretation #3.

This is the same understanding as interpretation number 2, but having different understandings on HOW the earth BECAME without form and void.

In other words, some of the OEC Christians believe in the understanding of a GAP of time between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2 and SOMETHING happened to cause the earth to become without form and void.

The abbreviation “OEC” stands for Old Earth Crrationist Christians, which believe that the earth is billions of years old, but mankind is only around 6,000 years old.

Thus, something happened around 12,000 to 15,000 years ago that caused the earth to become without form and void.

Then God restored the earth in Genesis 1:3-31.

And some other OEC Christians believe in the understanding that God CUT DOWN the heavens and the earth, which would make Genesis 1:1-31 a NEW beginning and NOT the ORIGINAL creation of the earth. 

And thus, the WHOLE meaning of the Hebrew word “bara” should be understood when reading Genesis 1:1, as God created AND God cut down the heaven and the earth.

In other words, God created the entire universe in the eternity past some billions of years ago.

And then, around 15,000 years ago God CUT DOWN the earth in His WRATH against His ENEMIES that waged a WAR against the other side of heaven, including attacking God’s throne.

Book 3 Chapter 7

The Word Created Also Means to CUT DOWN!

What do I mean by a FRESH NEW look at Genesis 1:1? 

Let us read Genesis 1:1,2 from the King James Version of the Bible first, and then I will explain WHY all Christians should take a FRESH NEW look at these two verses of Scripture.

For you see, some Christians have INTERPRETED Genesis chapter one in such a way that their “interpretation” of Genesis 1:2 CONTRADICTS other verses of Scripture. 

Here is Genesis 1:1,2 from the KJV translation or the King James Version of the Bible.

Genesis 1:1,2.

“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.”

Now, some Christians “interpret” Genesis 1:1,2 to mean that God CREATED the earth WITHOUT FORM and VOID. 

And then, God continued working on His creation of the earth that He originally CREATED as being without form and VOID having DARKNESS covering the earth.

In other words, young earth creationist Christians argue that God created the entire universe in six literal 24 hour days. 

And God ORIGINALLY created the earth without form and VOID having DARKNESS covering the earth.

But I see a problem with that “interpretation” of Genesis 1:1-31. 

For you see, their “interpretation” that God CREATED the earth WITHOUT FORM and VOID CONTRADICTS Isaiah 45:18.

Isaiah 45:18.

“For thus says the LORD that CREATED the heavens; God Himself that FORMED the earth and MADE it; He has ESTABLISHED it, He CREATED it NOT in VAIN, He FORMED it to be INHABITED: I am the LORD; and there is none else.”

Here are just some of the reasons for WHY I believe that the Bible ITSELF teaches us that the beginning in Genesis 1:3-31, Proverbs 8:22-31, John 1:1(a), and 1 John 1:1 is actually ANOTHER beginning AFTER Lucifer and the fallen angels rebelled against God’s throne and waged war against God.

First of all, it makes no sense for God to have created EVERYTHING GOOD in Genesis 1:3-31, but in Genesis 1:1,2, Almighty God “SUPPOSEDLY” created the earth BAD without any form and VOID or as WASTE.

Also, I should point out that the Hebrew word translated as “void” also means WASTE.

Secondly, Isaiah 45:18 CLEARLY teaches us in SIMPLICITY with no need of any interpretation that God did NOT create the earth in VAIN. 

You see, the Hebrew word “toho” that is translated as in VAIN in Isaiah 45:18 is the SAME Hebrew word translated as the earth was WITHOUT FORM in Genesis 1:2. 

For you see, the Hebrew word  “toho” that is translated as “without form” ALSO means VAIN as it is translated in Isaiah 45:18.

So then, clearly, God did not CREATE the earth WITHOUT FORM, in Genesis 1:1, the verse of Scripture that we are taking a FRESH NEW look at, because Isaiah 45:18 teaches us that God did NOT CREATE the earth in VAIN.

Therefore, the earth BECAME void or BECAME as WASTE because of the WAR between the angels in Genesis 1:1,2. 

In other words, PART of the heavens and the surface of the earth was CUT DOWN in Genesis 1:1 by Almighty God and His good and faithful angels getting VICTORY over the REBELLIOUS angels, according to Job 38:6.

You will soon see for yourself directly from the Scriptures that Lucifer and his angels waged a LITERAL WAR against God’s throne of authority. 

In other words, the war in heaven where one side of heaven is against the other side of heaven is not simply a so-called “spiritual” war.

Thirdly, why would God tell Adam and Eve to multiply and REPLENISH the earth in Genesis 1:28, if the earth had never had any humanoid life whatsoever inhabiting the earth during a previous AGE of the earth before Genesis 1:3?

The same Hebrew word translated as “RELENISH” in the KJV is ALSO used in Genesis 9:1 after the FLOOD in the time of Noah. 

And God told Noah to go and REPLENISH the earth. 

And clearly, the earth was indeed INHABITED by many people before the earth was FLOODED and covered with water having no DRY land in the days of the flood, which we call the flood of Noah. 

So, to me, the word “REPLENISH” in Genesis 1:28 indicates that the earth was indeed inhabited by ANOTHER race of beings BEFORE God created Adam and Eve some 6,000 years ago. 

Therefore, the earth itself is much older than just six thousand years old.

And that PREVIOUS race of beings were human-LIKE, but they were NOT human beings. 

Rather, they were “humanoid”, and God destroyed that race of beings along with the dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals with a FLOOD.

To me, there was a literal WAR in heaven first, a war with literal physical weapons that the Bible “describes” as fire and brimstone. 

That war caused earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, which in turn caused the ice age. And the flood followed after the ice age.

So then, the archaeological and fossil evidence supports the Biblical timeline of one day being 1000 years long. 

In other words, the six days of RESTORING the earth was six THOUSAND years. 

And that would place the DAY and BATTLE of WAR described in Job 38:6-23 to be around no less than 12,000 years ago or 6,000 years before God created Adam on the SIXTH day.

In other words, Almighty God used His weapons of snow and ice to CUT DOWN the earth with an AGE of ICE that was no less than 12,000 years ago, according to the Bible ITSELF.

Please know and understand that I believe that the Bible ITSELF teaches us that Adam and Eve are the first HUMANS that God created around 6,000 years ago.

Therefore, I do NOT believe in the man-made THEORY that humans EVOLVED from a single cell amoeba as science CLAIMS.

But I do believe that the Bible ITSELF teaches us that the earth and the heavens or the universe is much older than just 6,000 years old.

Also, according to the commentary in E-Sword, the Hebrew word “translated” as REPLENISH in Genesis 1:28 means to FILL, to make full, and to fill again or to REFILL.

For you see, the English word REPLENISH means to fill AGAIN. Look it up for yourself.

Here is a link to an online English dictionary.

Replenish Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster

Fourthly, in Genesis 1:9, God said let the DRY earth appear. 

Now, the word “land” is not in the original Hebrew text, and the Hebrew word translated as “appear” in the KJV means to show self or to be seen. 

In other words, God separated that waters under the heavens so that the DRY ground could be SEEN again. 

To say this another way, the flood waters receded and dry ground APPEARED. 

Plain and simple, the earth was already THERE and God made it DRY again after the Luciferian FLOOD.

Please read the study called D-28. The Luciferian FLOOD!

And fifthly, WHERE did Satan come from? Did God CREATE an ENEMY to be AGAINST Him and His faithful angels? That makes no sense!

For you see, the truth of the WHOLE matter is that God does NOT create evil. 

But rather, God CUTS DOWN evil. You see, the Hebrew word “bara” translated as created ALSO means to CUT DOWN, select, feed, and to choose. 

Notice that the Hebrew word “bara” translated as created in Genesis chapter 1, is only found in three verses, in chapter 1, Genesis 1:1, Genesis 1:21, and Genesis 1:27. 

And in all three verses, the Hebrew word “bara” could be UNDERSTOOD and interpreted BOTH ways having a DUEL meaning in each of those three verses of Scripture. 

In other words, in Genesis 1:1, God created the heavens and the earth AND ALSO cut down the heavens and the earth that He created. 

But the cutting down of the earth happened many millions of years later, even billions of years after God originally created the earth and the universe. 

And thus, the God intended meaning could very well be the DUAL meaning of God originally creating the earth in the eternity past AND also meaning God CUT DOWN the earth millions of years later to put an end to the Luciferian WAR.

Please read the Verse Study on Deuteronomy 4:32 The WAR in Heaven!

To say this another way, the earth was inhabited by a PREVIOUS race of people called the ANCIENTS in the Bible. 

And Lucifer was once a GOOD angel that God SET as a ruler or as a god over the earth during the AGE BEFORE God created Adam and Eve. 

But then, Lucifer rebelled and became Satan, that old or ancient red dragon in Revelation 12:3-9.

And, in Genesis 1:21, God “BARA”, CUT DOWN the INSOLENT DRAGON AND created fresh life or made ALIVE the creatures that were killed during the Luciferian flood to cut down the evil that inhabited the PREVIOUS AGE of the earth.

That was day five. Then on the sixth day God appointed all of the animals after their kind. The Hebrew word translated as “made” also means appointed. 

So then, God ORDAINED or FOUNDED some RULES for the earth. For example, there shall not be any more messing around making hybrid animals. 

From now on, every animal will only produce after its KIND. This may mean that SOME of the animals like the dinosaurs, God chose NOT to make them alive again. 

In other words, the GIANT animals MAY have been altered by Lucifer during the age before God created Adam and Eve. 

This would also explain the mythical creatures like that satyr and the mermaid, plus many other mythical creatures.

I mean if scientists are altering God’s creation in our world today, then why could not the corrupted fallen angels genetically alter God’s creation to make hybrid creatures that are not simply “myths”?

And thus, in Genesis 1:27, God created man to REPLENISH the earth for a REASON. And that reason is found in Psalm 8:1-6. 

So, I implore all my readers to read that Verse Study and also read Book #6 called B-6 Ch1 WHY God Created us! 

For now, please know and understand that the Son of God was MANIFESTED for the PURPOSE of DESTROYING the works of the devil, according to 1 John 3:8

So then, the TRUTH of the whole matter is that God RESTORED the earth over a 6,000 year period beginning around 12,000 years ago. 

God then created man and the Son of MAN for the PURPOSE of STILLING His ENEMIES. 

And then, 7,000 years later, God will have to CUT DOWN the earth again, but not with a flood.

Rather, the earth will be destroyed by FIRE, according to 2 Peter 3:8-17.

And consequently, God will also have to destroy the part of mankind that REJECTS His salvation and His WAY of living in peace with one another, when God destroys Satan and the fallen angels in the lake of fire.

So again, the TRUTH of the matter is that the Hebrew word in Genesis 1:2, that has been INCORRECTLY translated in the King James Version as the verb “WAS” in the past tense, actually means “come to PASS”. 

Here is how the E-Sword concordance defines the Hebrew word “hayah” that is wrongly translated as the verb “was” in the KJV AND also wrongly translated the Hebrew word “bara” as “CREATED” in Genesis 1:1.

Please notice below that the English verb “WAS” is not even in the DEFINITION of the Hebrew word “hayah”. 

It literally means COMING, coming to pass, to become or the earth BECAME without form and void. 

Therefore, for the translators to translate this Hebrew word as “WAS” in the past tense, MISLEADS Christians to wrongly believe that God CREATED the earth VOID and as a WASTE land. 

Now, to be FAIR to the young earth creationist Christians, after the earth BECAME without form and void, then it WAS indeed without form and void.

And thus, God needed to RENEW or RESTORE the earth to be habitable once again, according to Psalm 104:30. 

Again, that translation in the KJV, the earth WAS without form and void, CONTRADICTS Isaiah 45:18.

See the study Q-4. DID GOD CREATE EVIL? That study explains the true meaning of Isaiah 45:7-18, when verse 7 is correctly translated.

H1961

הָיָה

hâyâh

haw-yaw'

A primitive root (compare H1933); to exist, that is, be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary): - beacon, X altogether, be (-come, accomplished, committed, like), break, cause, come (to pass), continue, do, faint, fall, + follow, happen, X have, last, pertain, quit (one-) self, require, X use.

So then, after the original creation in the eternity past some billions of years ago, the earth was then in Genesis 1:1, was CUT DOWN millions of years later BECAUSE of God’s ENEMIES.

And thus, the earth BECAME a WASTE desolation in Genesis 1:2. 

Then God RESTORED order and recreated the earth to be inhabited once again with a NEW species of beings that God made a little LOWER than the angels, according to Psalm 8:1-6.

And God did this BECAUSE of His ENEMIES. So, I implore you to read the study called Psalm 8:5 Jesus Was MADE a Little Lower Than the Elohim!

But for now, I want you to think this through for yourself as you read the other MEANINGS of the Hebrew words in Genesis 1:2.

#1. And the earth BECAME without form, H8414

Here is how the E-Sword concordance defines the Hebrew word “tohu”.

H8414

תֹּהוּ

tôhû

to'-hoo

From an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), that is, desert; figuratively a worthless thing; adverbially in vain: - confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness.

#2. And the earth BECAME a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and void H922.

Here is how the E-Sword concordance defines the Hebrew word “boho” H922 that is translated as “void” in the KJV.

H922

בֹּהוּ

bôhû

bo'-ho

From an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, that is, (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin: - emptiness, void.

#3. And the earth BECAME a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922.

Here is how the E-Sword concordance defines the Hebrew word “boho” H922 that is translated as “void” in the KJV.

#4. And the earth BECAME a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922 and darkness H2822 was upon the face of the deep.

Here is how the E-Sword concordance defines the Hebrew word “choshek” H2822 that is translated as “darkness” in the KJV.

H2822

חֹשֶׁךְ

chôshek

kho-shek'

From H2821; the dark; hence (literally) darkness; figuratively misery, destruction, death, ignorance, sorrow, wickedness: - dark (-ness), night, obscurity.

Total KJV occurrences: 79.

#5. And the earth BECAME a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922 having DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness called the NIGHT of disembodied OBSCURE unseen invisible evil spirits H2822 was upon the face of the deep.

Now, notice that I place the verb “was” in light green, because it is NOT in the original Hebrew text. 

The Hebrew word translated as “upon” also means BECAUSE of. 

The Hebrew word translated as “face” also means ANGER. 

But the basic meaning is to TURN or a turning away from the FACE of God who is light to now bear the image of DARKNESS or EVIL. Let me explain what I mean by asking a question.

What is the end goal of Almighty God?

The answer is to destroy Satan and the fallen angels and to put an end to all evil. 

Revelation 22:1-5.  

“And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. 

Revelation 22:2. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 

Revelation 22:3. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: 

Revelation 22:4. And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. 

Revelation 22:5. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God gives them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.” 

We who are led by the Eternal Spirit dwelling in us do not NEED any EXTERNAL light to teach us God’s Will.

For you see, God Himself teaches us through His Spirit dwelling in us.

And that is God’s end goal for the AGE after the 1000-year reign of Jesus. God Himself will be ALL and DWELLING in ALL.

There will be no need for any law of God WRITTEN down on any external thing like paper or engrave in stone, because His law is written on our HEART within us.

So then, WHO is the FACE of the INVISIBLE Almighty God?

Who did God make in His express IMAGE after the cross and resurrection?

Did Jesus LEARN OBEDIENCE by the things he SUFFERED?

Did Jesus suffer TEMPTATION?

Did Jesus TURN his FACE, his will, to do the FACE, the Will of his God and Father to OBEY God’s plan of salvation to lay down his own life to ENDURE the cross FOR his FELLOWS, his fell humans so that God could TURN us to become the FACE of God made in the IMAGE of God’s Son, Jesus?

Now that you see the end goal and how God desires all men to be made in His IMAGE like He made His Son in His IMAGE, then you can see that the FACE of the ABYSS TURNED from LIGHT to DARKNESS.

And God moved upon the WATERS that POLLUTED themselves and were no longer that PURE water.

So, to SOLVE this polluted creation of His angels, the corrupted WATERS, God chose to DIVIDE or SEPARATE the PURE waters from the POLLUTED waters that TURNED.

Then God FOUNDED the earth. That means God sat down with His Elohim the council of His gods to solve this problem of His DISOBEDIENT children.

H3245

יָסַד

yâsad

yaw-sad'

A primitive root; to set (literally or figuratively); intensively to found; reflexively to sit down together, that is, settle, consult: - appoint, take counsel, establish, (lay the, lay for a) found (-ation), instruct, lay, ordain, set, X sure.

Total KJV occurrences: 43.

God said let us make man in OUR IMAGE.

Now, WHY did God make man and the Son of MAN?

Read Psalm 8:1-6 and you will see that it was because of His ENEMIES, and to STILL the ADVERSARY and take VENGEANCE or punish the enemies, Satan and the fallen gods.

That is the PROPHETIC meaning of Genesis chapter 1.

And thus, the LIGHT in Genesis 1:3-5 is the Aleph and the Tav light, aka, Messiah Jesus, the light of the world, whom God made both Lord and Messiah after the cross and resurrection, according to Acts 2:36.

And the Hebrew word translated as “deep” also means the UPROAR of the ABYSS.

So then, let us now use these other meanings in place of the last phrase “upon the face of the deep” in a PARAPHRASE version.

Know and understand that paraphrased versions ADD words to enhance the meaning.

And thus, we should not base doctrine solely on ADDED words in the Bible even when they are simply added for clarification.

In other words, paraphrased translations are INTERPRETATIONS and not the LITERAL meaning.

Therefore, paraphrase translations MIGHT be SOUND Biblical translations, but they can ALSO be MISLEADING translations.

So then, below is my own “paraphrased” translation, which I sincerely believe is what the WHOLE word of God teaches us.

#6. And the earth BECAME a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922, and DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness called the NIGHT of disembodied OBSCURE unseen invisible evil spirits H2822, BECAUSE OF the ANGER of God’s wrath AGAINST the UPROAR of the WAR is the ABYSS.

Now, with all of these meanings of these Hebrew words in mind, do you really think that God CREATED the earth in its original state as a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922, and DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness called the NIGHT of disembodied OBSCURE unseen invisible evil spirits H2822, BECAUSE OF the ANGER of God’s wrath AGAINST the UPROAR of the WAR in the ABYSS?

Or did the WRATH of God poured out on the fallen angels CUT DOWN the EVIL which caused the earth to BECOME a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922 and DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness called the NIGHT of disembodied OBSCURE unseen invisible evil spirits H2822 BECAUSE of the ANGER AGAINST the UPROAR of the ABYSS, when EVERYTHING else God created was VERY GOOD, according to Genesis 1:31?

For me, I say no! Absolutely NOT! The KJV translation of “the earth WAS” a waste desolation makes no sense in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.

For you see, according to Psalm 8:1-6, the very REASON for WHY God created or MADE man and the Son of Man is BECAUSE of His ENEMIES.

And that means the ENEMIES of God already existed BEFORE God created Adam on day six.

So then, to me and many other logical thinking Christians, it was AFTER Lucifer rebelled AGAINST Almighty God that Lucifer BECAME God’s ADVERSARY or God’s ENEMY. 

And thus, it makes far more sense to understand that the earth was CUT DOWN in Genesis 1:1 during the WAR between one side of heaven against the other side of heaven.

And therefore, the earth BECOME a waste desolation without form and void or empty of its previous inhabitants of the earth during a PREVIOUS AGE of the earth. 

Then in Genesis 1:3-31, God RESTORED the earth and created man and the Son of MAN BECAUSE of God’s ENEMIES, according to Psalm 8:1-6. 

And thus, God is in the process of JUDGING Satan and the fallen angels by using an inferior species of beings that He created a little LOWER than the angels to use as His FAITHFUL WITNESSES to JUDGE the fallen angels. 

Please read the study called D-32. WHY Does God Need WITNESSES?

But for now, please know and understand that one third of the angels BECAME corrupt as a choice that THEY themselves made to rebel against God’s throne of authority. 

And it appears that God has already given the fallen angels many opportunities to repent, but they refuse to do so. 

And thus, God desires to prove to His good and faithful angels that He did NOT create any of His creation to rebel against Him. 

And thus, Lucifer corrupted himself to become God’s ENEMY and drew one third of the angels to join his rebellion to wage a war against the good angels.

Again, please read the study called Deuteronomy 4:32 The WAR in Heaven!

For you see, the word “Satan” means adversary in the Hebrew and accuser in the Greek. 

And thus, BECAUSE of the ANGER of God’s WRATH against the rebellion or UPROAR of the abyss, the surface of the earth BECAME as a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922 and DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness called the NIGHT of disembodied OBSCURE unseen invisible evil spirits BECAUSE OF the ANGER AGAINST the UPROAR of the ABYSS.

Here are the meanings of the word Satan.

H7854

ָשׂ ָטן

śâṭân

saw-tawn'

From H7853; an opponent; especially (with the article prefixed) Satan, the arch enemy of good: - adversary, Satan, withstand.

G4567

Σατανᾶς

Satanas

sat-an-as'

Of Chaldee origin corresponding to G4566 (with the definite article affixed); the accuser, that is, the devil: - Satan.

Therefore, seeing that God CREATED everything GOOD and perfect, then it is a CONTRADICTION to “interpret” the Scriptures to mean that God CREATED Lucifer as being a WICKED creature and there was nothing Lucifer could have done to NOT be an evil wicked angelic being. 

And thus, Lucifer and the fallen angels CHOSE to rebel in an UPROAR like a RAGING SEA against God to wage a WAR to try to take over God’s throne. 

And that was BEFORE God RESTORED the earth in Genesis 1:3-31 to be habitable once again. For you see, a FLOODED earth is NOT habitable.

And in the creation account in Proverbs 8:22-31, we can see a FLOOD in verses 24-27, the same abyss we see in Genesis 1:2 translated as depths.

Keep in mind that the raging sea prophetically speaks of the WICKED, according to Isaiah 57:20,21, and WATERS prophetically speak of multitudes of PEOPLE, according to Revelation 17:1,15.

We also see in verses 30 and 31 that it was as if “wisdom”, a figure or personification of Jesus, was brought up with God. 

In other words, Proverbs 8:22-31 actually teaches us that the Son of God did NOT pre-exist in the eternity past as some Christians CLAIM and even dogmatically demand that we must believe in order to be saved. 

Both of the studies linked below, one in blue, and one in red are completely DIFFERENT studies. 

The study with the blue link shows the Luciferian flood and how God is RESTORING the earth. 

And the one with the red link proves that the Son of God did NOT pre-exist. 

For you see, verse 31 is a PROPHECY of the future Son of God rejoicing in the HABITABLE part of the earth BEFORE God restored the FLOODED earth to be habitable once again. 

Again, please read both studies called V-21. What Does Proverbs 8:22-31 TRULY Mean? 

And V-20. Does Proverbs 8:22-31 Prove Jesus Pre-existed?

And once you know and understand that the BEGINNING in Genesis 1:1,2, Proverbs 8:22-31, John 1:1, and 1 John 1:1 is NOT the very beginning in the eternity past, then you can clearly see that God did NOT need a PLAN of salvation until AFTER Lucifer rebelled against God and God SHOOK the earth in His wrath. 

Please read the study called D-39. The Day that God SHOOK the Earth!

But for now, let us continue with this study in God’s word. The Hebrew word “rosh” used in Proverbs 8:23 and verse 26 is the SAME Hebrew word. 

However, it translated as “beginning” in Proverbs 8:23, but it literally means to SHAKE the HEAD. 

Hence, shake and BRUISE the HEAD of the snake, so to speak. 

And thus, Proverbs 8:22,23 should have been translated as “I was ANOINTED to be king in the mind of God at the time of the SHAKING of the earth.”  

And Proverbs 8:26 should have been translated as “while as yet, He had not BRUISED the earth nor SEVERED the highest HEAD of the earth and its INHABITANTS.” 

The Messiah was there in the mind and plan of Almighty God to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.

Therefore, the phrase, “the Lamb was SLAIN before the FOUNDATION of the world” means that God devised His PLAN of salvation AFTER Lucifer rebelled against God, but BEFORE God RESTORED the earth to be HABITABLE once again in Genesis 1:3-31. 

Please read the study Q-5. What is the Foundation of the World?

And that means that God did NOT need a PLAN of salvation until AFTER Lucifer rebelled against God. 

Therefore, the phrase, “the Lamb was SLAIN before the FOUNDATION of the world” means that God devised His PLAN of salvation AFTER Lucifer rebelled against God, but BEFORE God RESTORED the earth to be HABITABLE once again in Genesis 1:3-31.

And consequently, that means that the BEGINNING in John 1:1 is NOT the very beginning in the eternity past as Christians have been taught by church TRADITION. 

So then, let us now closely examine John 1:1-3, word by word by looking at the meanings of each word in the ORIGINAL Greek text.

Here is John 1:1 with the Strong’s numbers right after each word that is in the original Greek text. 

The word “the” in light green letters is NOT in the original Greek text and it was ADDED by the translators. 

And the word “THE” highlighted in orange was LEFT OUT of the King James Version by the translators.

John 1:1 with the Strong’s numbers.

In G1722 the beginning G746 was G2258 the G3588 Word, G3056 and G2532 the G3588 Word G3056 was G2258

with G4314 THE God, G2316 and G2532 the G3588 Word G3056 was G2258 God G2316.

So then, in the LIGHT of what we have just learned, the beginning in Genesis 1:3-31 was the RESTORATION of the earth to be habitable once again after the earth BECAME as a WASTE DESOLATION on the surface, H8414 and an indistinguishable RUIN that was EMPTY on the surface H922 and DEATH, DESTRUCTION, and WICKEDNESS of darkness H2822 BECAUSE OF the ANGER AGAINST the UPROAR of the WAR in the ABYSS.

In other words, since the BEGINNING or BECAUSE of the beginning in Genesis chapter 1 is why there became a need for the SALVATION of the earth, so to speak.

So then, WHY would John 1:1 be the VERY beginning in the eternity past? 

To say this another way, think of the beginning in John 1:1 as the beginning of God’s PLAN of SALVATION!

For you see, it makes no sense for God to devise a plan of SALVATION BEFORE God created the entire Universe. 

I mean, think this through for yourself! Can you not see, that to “interpret” John 1:1 to mean that God devised His plan of salvation BEFORE God ever created ANYTHING, is to say that God did not know how to create His creatures GOOD. 

Think about this for a moment, would God say to Himself, I better have a plan to save my creation just in case I mess up? 

Or would God say to Himself, I am going to deliberately create man to FALL just so I can save them? No! Absolutely NOT! 

It makes far more SENSE to know and understand that the BEGINNING in both Genesis 1:3-31, and in John 1:1, as well as in Proverbs 8:22-31, and 1 John 1:1 are ALL ANOTHER new beginning AFTER Lucifer and the fallen angels waged WAR against Almighty God. 

Please read ALL of the studies under the heading called ** Q-0. WHY are we HERE?-Is God at WAR? ** 

And also, please read my new book #6. Here is the link to chapter1, B-6 Ch1 WHY God Created us!

But for now, here is a NEW FRESH look at Genesis 1:3-31 interpreted as PROPHECY. 

Let us see what the Bible itself teaches us about Genesis chapter 1 being filled with PROPHECY and the SHADOW of Messiah existing as hidden prophecies in Genesis 1:3-31.

Let the Bible speak for ITSELF.

The very days of what Christians call the creation week are TYPES, SHADOWS, and FIGURES of the true yet to come.

For example, God DIVIDED the LIGHT from the DARKNESS on the FIRST day of the week or the FIRST 1000 years of mankind on the earth.

And during that FIRST 1000 year long DAY, Adam ate from the tree of knowledge. 

And both Adam’s and Eve’s eyes were opened to DISCERN between GOOD and EVIL or to know the difference between LIGHT from DARKNESS. 

In other words, they inherited a CONSCIENCE to know good from evil.

All through the Bible LIGHT is a figure of GOOD and DARKNESS is the shadow of EVIL. 

The children of the DAY are the children of God, and the children of the NIGHT are the children of the Devil, according to 1 John 3:10, and 1 Thessalonians 5:4-11.

God divided the waters with a firmament on the SECOND day. It did not rain during the first 1000 year long DAY. 

But then, after the first 1000 year long DAY, God changed the way that the ground was watered on the second DAY. 

God divided the waters on the SECOND day. And prophetically, God divided the waters literally during the second 1000 years.

In other words, toward the end of day two, during the second 1000 year long DAY of man upon the earth, God made it rain for forty days and forty nights at the flood of Noah. It had never rained before that time. 

And thus, the sinners mocked Noah for warning them that God was going to flood the earth if they did not repent.

God divided the waters and made dry ground appear on the THIRD day. 

And during the THIRD 1000 year long DAY of man upon the earth, God divided the Red sea and made DRY ground appear.

God made two great lights on the FOURTH day, a greater light by day and a lesser light by night. 

And during the FOURTH 1000 year long DAY of man upon the earth, God sent two great lights out into the world. The greater light was Jesus and the lesser light was John the baptist. 

Some might say that Jesus is the lesser light and the church is the greater light because the church has many members and Jesus is only one person. 

Plus, Jesus said that we shall do GREATER works than he did. The main point is that Jesus is the light of the world and we are the light of the world. 

And the church began on the fourth day or during the fourth 1000 year day.

God created life in the waters on the FIFTH day. And during the FIFTH 1000 year long DAY of man upon the earth, God sent His Holy Spirit to give life to those who believe. 

The Holy Spirit represented by LIVING water was given to all who believe in Jesus to be made alive from “spiritual” death.

God created man on the SIXTH day. And at the end of the SIXTH 1000 year DAY, God's NEW creation will be made in the IMAGE of God. 

In other words, all who BELIEVE in Jesus will be CREATED as NEW IMMORTAL RIGHTEOUS sons and daughters of God. 

And we are at the tail end of the SIXTH 1000 year long DAY of God’s creation presently.

God RESTED from all His works on the SEVENTH day. And during the SEVENTH 1000 year long DAY in the

world to come, we who believe in Jesus NOW in this present world BEFORE the second coming of Jesus, will REST with Almighty God the Father.

Adam himself was used to make a comparison between the NATURAL and the SPIRITUAL showing us that one day yet in the future that the natural will take upon that divine spiritual nature of immortality just like Jesus was CHANGED from being the MORTAL Son of MAN, to NOW being the GLORIFIED Son of MAN who BECAME God’s eternal Son AFTER the cross and resurrection. 

Please read the three part study called O-14. When did Jesus Become God's Son? Part 1.

But for now, please consider the following FRESH NEW translation of Genesis 1:3-31 in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of Almighty God, which I explained at the beginning of this study in God’s word. 

I will add my comments in parenthesis as usual. Again, the words highlighted in orange refer to Almighty God the Father. And the pronouns “he” and “him” in the LITERAL translation highlighted in yellow refer to PROPHECIES of Messiah Jesus. And what I highlighted in green refers to Yahweh cutting down EVIL.

Genesis 1:2-31 with my own fresh new translation.

Genesis 1:2. And the earth BECAME a WASTE 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’s wrath AGAINST the UPROAR of the WAR in 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, (A figure of the children of the DAY in 1 Thessalonians 5:5) 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.

But this also means that God divided or separated the ANCIENT people, the angels.

And the firmament is the BOUNDARY line that the RAGING SEA, speaking of the fallen angels, came from that boundary line and no further.

Also, during the world to come, the saints in Jesus will dwelling in the City of God in the AIR while the unsaved mortals will dwell on the surface of the earth)

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, according to Isaiah 57:20.

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 that 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 was 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 created (Aleph Tav Messiah Jesus) great whales, and every living creature that move, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. (Now, 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, Jesus will BIND Satan and cast him 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 in the natural or literal sense, I believe that many of the fish in the Luciferian FLOOD waters survived like fish 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 CUT DOWN 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 KINDS on the earth when God CUT DOWN 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. (Or bridegroom and bride 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 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 is read a NEW FRESH translation of John 1:1,12-14 using OTHER meanings of the Greek words.

My own translation of John 1:1,12-14.

“AT FIRST was the SAYING, and the SAYING was in the direction TOWARD 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 His name: (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 the will 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.”
