Bible Question:
What period of time is "in the beginning"? When did it start and when did it end? Did it end when the first day of creation began or after? Thank you, Hoth |
Bible Answer: Hello Hoth, In answer to your question: Scripture doesn't say! As JFB notes, "In the beginning—a period of remote and unknown antiquity, hid in the depths of eternal ages; and so the phrase is used in Prov. 8:22, 23." I hope this helps, BradK |
