Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Studia Sacra 1. In Hebrew and early Christian cosmogonies, the earth was conceived as a disk surrounded by, and resting upon, underlying waters of vast extent and depth, which were called tehom or the abyss. God had ´spread forth the earth above the waters´ at the beginning; He had ´founded it upon the seas and established it upon the floods.´ From these ´waters under the earth´ all springs and rivers welled up. Fertilising streams are called ´the blessings of the deep that coucheth beneath.´ Or, as the book of Enoch has it, ´The earth was founded upon the water, and from the secret recesses of the mountains come beautiful waters from the creation of the world and unto eternity.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
