Subject: When was "In the Beginning" |
Bible Note: Nicholson, I was reading your post containing all the astronomical data and nodding my head. In fact, I was doing just fine in following your line of thought until I came to the end of your post in which you concluded, "It is clear that an unrevealed length of time has elapsed between Gen.1:1 and Gen.1:2. This period of time may be a number of ages." That's where you lost me. I re-read your post to see whether I'd missed something, and the something I was looking for, but could not find, was something substantive, a shred or two of evidence, to back up your hypothesis. Please, if you will, tell us how you arrived at your concusion in view of the Scriptural text. --Hank |
