Bible Note: Good Morning CDBJ, Thank you for responding, the verses you mention are very good, and I heartily agree that "there are numerous translations that have a tendency to mislead the intended meaning". Now could you please explain how this points to the belief that: "This pristine earth, originally occupied by the angels, became a chaotic ruin following Satan’s revolt against God." I can find nothing in Scripture that even comes close. I ask you to please adhere strictly to God's Word, and throw out all of man's eisegetics. Thank you for your time and efforts as we explore God's Word together, keliy eis·e·ge·sis –noun,plural- an interpretation, esp. of Scripture, that expresses the interpreter's own ideas, bias, or the like, rather than the meaning of the text.
