I believe Genesis 1:2 should be compared with Jeremiah 4:23. These verses
use both the
words 'tohuw wa bohuw.' Jeremiah used it to describe the Southern Kingdom
after its
destruction by the Chaldeans and Israel's enemies. I believe Genesis 1:2
describes the
Earth after the rebellion of Lucifer and his followers. What linguistic
analysis is
there that would deny this interpretation?
