Thank you for the ping!

Have you studied Hebrew at all?

For those interested in the Hebrew translation of Genesis 1, here is a mechanical, literal and poetic translation.

Another handy source on the translation wrt science is: Age of the Universe

Don't need no furriner's lingo! The King James version was good enough for Moses, so I'm gonna stick with that.

Thanks for the link, Alama-Girl. Much as I tried to say, far less eloquently, the ancient Jews didn't think about "science" and the origins of the universe the way we do; nonetheless, they recognized a deeper mystery than was described in 31 sentences in Genesis.
