Genesis I
One - In the Beginning Created God, the Heavens, and the Earth.
Aleph - Berashith Berah Elohim Ath Ha-Shamaim Vath Ha-Aretz.
The "meaning" of Genesis 1:1 is to be found at a deeper level of the text. The Torah according to Jewish Rabbi's is said to be written on 4 different and meaningful levels. The first word of Genesis is B'reshith. The first letter is Bet and is translated (as in, or with). Beth, meaning house or dwelling place is an archetypical represention of the distinction between inside and outside. Reshit is usually identified with the root Resh, meaning 1st, chief or beginning of. Thus B'reshith is commonly translated as "In the beginning." So we can see this inside-outside relationship repeated in the rest of Genesis 1:1. The "heavens" surround the "earth." Much like Beth surrounds Resh. Reshith can also be seen to derive from the root Reshet which designates a woven net or network. An examination of the letter sequences in Genesis 1:1 demonstrates that the letters are all strictly arranged in a woven order. The order of the letters and words in Genesis 1:1 are explicitly defined. So ends the 1st verse of Genesis. In Hebrew, letters of the words are also understood as numbers.
Dr Ivan Panin born in December of 1855 was as a young man an active nihilist who participated in plots against the Czar. He was a mathematical genius whowas exiled from Russia, then after spending a number of years studying in Germany, he arrived in the US, where he became an outstanding lecturer on literary criticism. Panin was known as a firm agnostic, SO WELL KNOWN THAT WHEN HE ABANDONED AGNOSTISM FOR CHRISTIANITY, NEWSPAPERS CARRIED HEADLINES OF HIS CONVERSION! In 1890 Dr Panin made the discovery of the mathematical structures underlining The Scriptures. Panin carefully examining the Hebrew text
of Genesis 1:1 discovering an incredible phenomenon of a multiples of 7. Panin died as a Harvard teacher, scholar and a proud citizen of the USA in 1942.
Ivan Panin discovered literally thousands of mathematical patterns underlying The Scriptures before his death. Panin's book, The Inspiration of the Scriptures Scientifically Demonstrated discusses these phenomena extensively. Others have examined other literature in an attempt to duplicate his findings, to no avail. Panin's work is highly detailed and exhaustive. These few selected excerpts will be more than enough to convince the honest inquirer that the Bible is all it claims to be - the Holy, inspired, infallible Word of God. Panin supplied a representative of the Nobel Research Foundation with over 43,000 pages of his studies accompanied by his statement that this was his evidence that the Bible was the Word of God. Their reply was - "As far as our investigation has proceeded we find the evidence over-whelmingly in favor of such a statement."
When professors on the mathematics faculty at Harvard University were presented with this biblical phenomenon they naturally attempted to disprove its significance as a proof of divine authorship. However, after valiant efforts these professors were unable to duplicate this incredible mathematical phenomenon. The Harvard scientists used the English language and artificially assigned numeric values to the English alphabet. They had a potential vocabulary of over 400,000 available English words to choose from to construct a sentence about any topic they chose. Compare this to the limitations of word choices in the biblical Hebrew language
which has only 4500 available word choices that the writers of the Old Testament could use. Despite their advanced mathematical abilities and access to computers the mathematicians were unable to come close to incorporating 30 mathematical multiples of 7 as found in the Hebrew words of Genesis 1:1.
He challenged 9 noted rationalists and Bible critics through the New York Sun to publicly refute or give explanation for a few of his presented facts other than the obvious; that the Word of God was the product of a Divine Mastermind above all possibility of human construction, carrying within itself a self-checking and protecting factor to ensure against additions and subtractions to its text in the original languages. Four made lame excuses; the rest were silent. He issued a challenge throughout leading newspapers of the world to offer a natural explanation or refute the facts; not a single person has ever been able to do so.
The Bible's first verse comprises 7 Hebrew words formed from a total of 28 letters. Seven being the "NUMBER OF COMPLETENESS" is the most often found of a mathematical series of numbers and types which bind scripture together. The very first verse of the Bible, contains over 30 different combinations of seven. This verse has seven Hebrew words having a total of 28 letters 4 x 7. The numeric value of the three nouns "God", "heaven" and "earth" have together 14 letters, totaling the word number value
of 777. Anytime a number in triplicate value is found within the Sacred Text, it expresses completeness and final, ultimate or total meaning. Here are a few of the 30 some examples in Gen 1:1, of which I've given 3 already.
4. The sentence divides into two equal parts each containing 14 letters
5. The last four Hebrew words "the heavens and the earth" have 14 letters (7x2).
7. The numeric value of the verb, created, is 203, or 7 X 29.
8. The middle word (2 letters) and the one before it (5 letters) have 7 letters.
9. The middle word and the one after it have together 7 letters.
10. The fourth and fifth words have 7 letters
11. The sixth and seventh words have 7 letters
12. The numeric value of the first and last letters of the first half is 42, (7x6).
13. The number of letters in the four remaining words is also 14 (7x2 = 14)
14. The numeric value of the first and last letters of the second half is 91, (7x13).
15. The Hebrew numeric value of the first, middle and last letters is 133 (7x19).
16. The numeric value of the 1st and last letters of all 7 words is 1393 (7x199).
17. The 1st and last letters of all words, numeric value is 1,292, (7x199).
18. The 1st and last letters of the first and last words is 497, or 7 x 71.
19. The sum of the words 6 and 7 is 703, (19x37).
The 7 Hebrew words of the Bible's first verse, Genesis 1:1 in word order corresponding to their numerical values are respectively, 913, 203, 86, 401, 395, 407, and 296. The sum of these numbers is 2701, or 37x73. The factors of this sum are both prime numbers which further relates to 2701. 2701 is a triangular number, meaning it may naturally be resolved into the shape of an equilateral triangle. It is, in fact, the 73rd triangular number, meaning it is the sum of all the integers up to and including 73 (1+2+3...+73 = 2701). , being very important mathematically and geometrically.
Genesis 1:1 also reveals a remarkably accurate approximation of the The Constant PI.The Constant E of Euler's formula, that occurs naturally where a quantity increases at a rate proportional to its value. The Constant A which measures the strength with which subatomic particles interact with one another and with light: called the Atomic coupling constant. The Theorem of Pythagoras, etc ... ecetera.
More remarkable is the fact that, numerics fix the individual letters so that they cannot be changed. Hebrew is called a synthetic language, that is, the meaning expressed is indicated largely by the use of prefixes and suffixes. And in many cases the changing of a prefix completely reverses the meaning of the whole sentence. It is therefore important that the first and last letters of the words should be protected against alteration.
So what does all of this amount to? The fact that Genesis 1:1 defines a set of relations that really do describe creation, a complete creation!! Not just a physical theory described by a narrative, but as an unfolding set of universal mathematicial, topological and geometrically relationships.
Genesis I
Two - And the earth was (became, came to pass) without form, and void (a waste and a desolation); and darkness (obscure dark place) was upon the face (in front of, on the surface of) of the deep (abyss, grave, sea - also meaning peoples). And the Spirit (wind, breath, mind) of God (Elohim) moved (shake, move, hover) upon the face (in front of, on the surface of) of the waters (water - of danger, violence, transitory things).
Beth - Vath Ha-Aretz Hayah Toho Va Boho; Khoshek Paniym Tehhome. Ruwach Elohiym al Paniym Mayhim.
Then God begins the recreative process which according to Hebrew calendars days began at sunset though night and till the end of the next day beginning at sunset the next day. This DAY, not The Day has no numeral, ordinal, or cardinal qualifiers to limit it to a 24 hour period. And refers to a period of time, that has a beginning and an end.
What I'm basically saying is the earth became without form and void or a waste and a desolation, called The Katabole or Overthrow in the NT. So much more could be said! Gen 1:1 relates directly to Rev 21 and on, as a new heaven and earth. And Gen 1:2 and Rev 20 basically relate to each other directly as to Satan Fall. I'll just leave it as that, that the Heavens and Earth were COMPLETE, LACKING NOTHING!! Which was the 1st aeon, age, earth, ha'eretz; Not to be confused with dispensations of time in this 2nd earth age, which is now of grace. (2 Pet 3) I've talked to much already and haven't even touched the surface of just verse 1, let alone 2.
