"And the earth was for Him" (Genesis 1:2a Alexander)

He, the Son of God, is the Milta (Miltha), the Manifestation OF God that IS God. He is the insubstantive in substance form. I believe the "Son" of the Ineffable (...?) is Its Consciousness (capital 'c'); the Ineffable's Consciousness is the Ineffable's "Manifestation," and the Ineffable's Manifestation is thus the Ineffable's "Son": a party of two that are, in fact, one thing.

"As the Beginning (my capitalization, not Alexander's), the Son of God (the Milta, the Manifestation of God) creates (!) the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1 Alexander).

"AND THE EARTH WAS FOR HIM."

The earth is FOR the Milta, FOR the Manifestation of God. "And by Him," Genesis 1:2a continues. THAT IS WHAT IS GOING ON--the Milta, the Manifestation OF God, IS MAKING ITSELF.

The Ineffable is an insubstantive medium. Its Consciousness is Its Manifestation as a substantive medium: "God"--invisible, intelligent mediums of Power which pop up as Persons of Love. We are pop ups by Him meant FOR Him.

Your version of Genesis probably does not read this way. I am really glad I discovered Victor N. Alexander's translations from the ancient Aramaic. I have a really hard time getting past his translations of Genesis and Exodus--Oh, they set my mind to thinking!
