1 | Earth was without form, and void. | Gen 1:1 | vkey | 19984 | ||
I agree with you. In my NIV, Genesis 1:1 and 1:2 go on like this: In the begining, God created the heaven and the earth. Now, the earth was(*) formless and empty. the footnote for was is given as "possibly became". also, when you come to the 2nd verse, it begins with the word "now" after God created heaven and earth. it so probably became void at that particular time. it doesnt make any scriptural sense that God would create something formless and empty. Another important thing i would like to quote is when i was watching TV, i saw Benny Hinn quoting a verse from Jeremiah as when God created man, He commanded him to replenish the earth.(which means refill) which can only mean there was life previously too. unfortunately i dont remeber which verse. so if anyone can find it, it will be very useful. regs, Vkey |

2 | Earth was without form, and void. | Gen 1:1 | Sir Pent | 19987 | ||
Support, Scripture ............................. Benny Hinn was probably referring to Gen 1:28, which uses the word replenish in the King James Version. I do not personally support his view. I am only giving a scriptural reference for information. It should be noted that it is "fill the earth" in almost all other translations, including NASB, NIV, RSV, NLT, YLT, and even the King James for the 21st Century. |

Actually, i do remember him quoting that verse from Jeremiah and not from Genesis which in my bible (NIV) it is also "fill". but as i said before, i dont remember which one it is which says replenish the earth. |
