Morrises quote about the movement of the Spirit across the waters, possibly meaning “Vibrating” doesn’t seem to do any damage to the text seeing that the same word is rendered shake and flutter.

You are ironically missing the beautiful nuclear physics that phrasing invokes because the first few minutes of the so-called Big Bang Theory are very exactly described in Genesis. In smaller quantities, they are what we see every day today in the world's high energy particle accelerators and nuclear reactors, and (in the stars) all around us in space

In particular, the subtleties of the above translation (in the box highlighted above) exactly match the sequence of high energy nuclear reactions required as the universe cooled off after it was created. And, in fact as well as in deed, the entire (future) universe would “vibrate” as waves (energy at the speed of light) as it cools down to form solid matter).

Note that the Creator separated light from darkness AFTER light was created - something that can does actually happen as matter is formed from high energy particles as they cool to our more familiar protons, neutrons, and electrons from that miraculous “stew” of boson, quarks and electromagnetic energy.

True, an itinerant illiterate shepherd whose culture doesn't count past “seven times seventy” cannot be expected to keep track of the differences between water and other high energy fluids that nuclear engineering requires, but truly, what is the difference in the Creation Story between “waters” and high energy ions, interstellar gasses and dust clouds, plasmas, quarks, atmospheres and oceans and molten rock?

Wow! thanks for the incredible post! Go’s Word is timeless and amazing!

I cannot argue with your comments. What I can say is that God, our Heavenly Father that created each and every soul, told Moses what to pen in Genesis. Genesis 1:1 is a declaration of what God did. There is no time stamp on how long it took or how long that heaven/earth age lasted.

Genesis 1:2 describes what Christ and Paul call the overthrow - casting down of the devil that got translated as 'the foundation of the world'. Peter calls the heaven/earth age of Genesis 1:1 the world (age) that WAS. Peter and Jeremiah both describe the complete destruction that Moses says took place in Genesis 1:2.

Peter also says that God's methodology of time keeping is His day is as a thousand years.... Methuselah did not live a full day with the LORD. I have no argument with what is natural interaction and reaction. But there is NO evolutionary tail/tale because of when all souls/spirit intellect were created.

I wouldn't say that I'm "missing" it, (at least not entirely), but you are obviously more well studied than I in this area.

I have concentrated more on the timing of the events rather than the mechanics and the spirit vs. flesh aspects.

I did find your reply very interesting, however.
