genesis 1
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
matthew 3
And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him
you get this same picture with jesus being baptised as you are presented with in the very first verses of the bible
you start out with the untamed waters (a symbol of chaos) on the face of an inordered world, until the spirit of god descends and alights upon the face of the waters - order from out of chaos
then you have this portrait of jesus, who descends down into the waters below (when he doesnt need to), only to rise up and the spirit of god descend and alight upon him. its almost as if jesus is becoming identified with, and subsequently overcoming the tohu`wabohu of the primordial deep
is it any coincidence the endowment presents michael as the holy spirit who follows a divine pattern to organise this world? after all, the scriptures themselves appear to identify adam with this selfsame spirit of creation, from that first day, even as the temple presentation does
genesis 1
The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God (ruach`eloheim) was hovering over the face of the waters.
genesis 2
then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, (nishmat`hayya) and the man became a living creature.
what could all this mean i wonder?
my 5 minute search for Rorschach Gun Eastwood, wouldn’t turn up a favorite video clip.
Anyways, any ink blot to me makes me think of Mist Lift OTEC, much the same as “my gun” in said clip. Anyone even vaguely recall said video clip?
In that case, the breath is mostly comprised of water vapor, and bringing nutrients up from the depths would indeed breathe new life into vast areas of sterile ocean surFACE.
But alas, we chose another fruit offered up by the Evil OPEC Empire. Bush himself spouted on about the Evil Empire while feasting upon, what one-day we’ll recognize as the wrong choice.
