Dear Lloyd,

i think it's as folks have been saying: "it was in the beginning of
Elohim's creating..."  someone asked about the Fox translation; it's "At
the beginning of God's creating of the heavens and the earth, when the
earth was wild and waste, darkness over the face of the Ocean,
rushing-spirit of God hovering over the face of the waters--God said..."

Shalom,
Bryan
