The Mysteries of the Creation

Biblical Faith - with Sam Peak
Weekly series with new shows available every Tuesday.

Bereishit 1:1 states, “In the beginning Elokim created the heaves and the earth. The earth was tohu and bohu and there was darkness on the face of the depths, and the Spirit of Elokim hovered over the surface of the water.”

What is tohu? Tohu is a green lime which goes around the world, and is the source of darkness. What is bohu? Bohu refers to wet rocks sunk in the depths from which water springs.

In the Midrash (Brayshit Rabba 10:2), The creation of the world can be compared to a public bath in whose floor were two fine mosaics. As long as the bath is filled with water the art-work is not visible. When the water is drained on can appreciate the mosaics. So too, as long as the world was tohu and bohu, the work of heaven and eart was not visible. When tohu and bohu were removed the work of heaven and earth could be appreciated.

From “Mysteries of the Creation” by Rabbi Dovid Brown.  We are studying from the following pages: pg. 49–56.

The Mysteries of the Creation

Biblical Faith - with Sam Peak
Weekly series with new shows available every Tuesday.

We apologize - due to some technical difficulties with the sound tracks on recent programs of the Way of G-d series, we will be substituting another series of studies for a few weeks until we can reproduce those programs with the sound problem - thanks for your understanding.

Bereishit 1:5 states, “It became evening and it became morning; one day.” The verse does not state that Elokim announced, “There will be an evening; there shall be a morning; these will constitute one day.” It simple says, “It became evening.” That shows that the progression of time pre-existed the creation.

Elokim knows all the laws of science, for they too are His creatures. He makes no mistakes, the first time. The whole universe with all its complexities, containing the knowledge of all the sciences, discovered, yet to be discovered, and perhaps never to be discovered, were all mapped out in His mind without flaw.

From “Mysteries of the Creation” by Rabbi Dovid Brown.  We are studying from the following pages: pg. 44–49.
