There is no GOD (ie. a supernatural monotheistic being)
Sentence WORD ORDER
Genesis 1:1 KJV āIn the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.ā
This is incorrect. It should be
āIn the beginning created God - the heavens - the earthā. Source:
Genesis 1:1 Biblos Interlinear Bible
MEANING of the word āGodā used in the Bible:
Genesis 1:1, Hebrew word #430 āGodā.
In Strongās Concordance we are told that this word is the plural of 'elowahhā and means āgods in the ordinary sense
ā; but specifically used (in the plural thus, especially with the article) of the supreme God.
Source:
Strong's Hebrew: 430. ×Ö±×Ö¹×Ö“×× (elohim) -- God, god
SO, the use of the āsupreme Godā as a given meaning (rather than its original Hebrew meaning of āgods in the ordinary senseā) is specifically and especially employed when the article āTHEā is used, as in THE GOD - being āThe Godā to whom religious people refer.
BUT in Genesis 1:1 the article ātheā is NOT present, thus
Moses was describing ordinary gods, plural.
Word ETYMOLOGY
In Strongās Concordance we are told that #430 is the plural of Hebrew word #433.
Hebrew word #433 meant āa deityā.
As the original Hebrew etymology meant ādeityā, hence as word #430 is the PLURAL of this word, then the word āGodā in Genesis 1:1 meant ā
deitiesā (or āordinary godsā).
Source:
Strong's Hebrew: 433. ×Ö±×Ö«×Ö¹×Ö·Ö¼, (eloah) -- God, god
CONTEXT
Moses was an Egyptian priest who was shown and told the āancient Egyptian wisdomā.
The gods whom Moses knew were the Heliopolis Ennead* of nine Egyptian deities.
Moses knew of āgodsā plural, and as such, when he wrote Genesis 1:1, and as the original Hebrew meanings confirm, he was citing the Egyptian deities, plural, of whom he knew.
* Ronald Pegg has identified the actual source of those nine āgodsā.
pp117-119, World Breaking discoveries- A New Era Begins, Adelaide, South Australia, 2007.
THEREFORE, in regard the the āGODā to whom Moses was referring, the Context and Original word Meaning was ādeitiesā plural, not the singular God as portrayed by religious people in their traditions.
Christians may agree with the āpluralā aspect, and say that it is plural because of the Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost, but that story was invented over a period of time during the first four centuries by Roman Emperors, some 1200 years later (probably based upon the Egyptian Triad of Gods).
If there is no singular GOD of the Bible, then a single supernatural monotheistic Being did NOT create the heavens and the earth.
While this has disproved a āsingle Godā as believed in the Bible, it only means that Gods plural may have ācreated heaven and earthā.
