Proverbs

Chapter 8





22.  The Lord created Wisdom¹ in the Beginning² of his way (at the Beginning² of his course), even before his ancient activity commenced.
23.   I, Wisdom was installed, from everlasting, from the Beginning, or ever the earth was.
24.  When there were no depths, oceans, I was brought forth; when there were no springs (fountains) abounding with water.
25.   Before the mountains had time to settle, before heights, hills was I born¹:
26.   While as yet he had not made the land, nor fashioned the outside¹ (exterior of Earth), nor even made the initial, primal, essential atom² particles of the globe.
27.   When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set (decreed) a circuit line¹ [the earth follows around the Sun] upon the face of the deep space:
28.   When he established the vapor (gas) particles of the skies (atmosphere) above: when he fixed firm with strength the subterranean springs (fountains) in the earth beneath :
29.  When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not cross over his boundary commandment¹: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30.  I was, at his side architect....master-workman, (in training with him): and I was daily his delight, continually rejoicing before him;
31.   Rejoicing in the inhabitable world on his Earth¹; and my delights were with the inhabitants.    


22.   ¹ O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! -Rom.11:33
        ²Gen. 1:1; John 1:1
25.   ¹Before the mountains or hills were born, I was born. Psa.90:2 
26.   ¹Formed, fashioned, planned the outward surface, appearance. Gen.1:2 and 1 Cor. 7:31.
        ²A Translation of the Old Testament Scriptures From the Original Hebrew by Helen Spurrell.  The things which are seen were not made of things which do appear -Heb.11:3
27.   ¹ This is when God called for a line around our Sun, so that a world will track it perfectly, not deviating one iota. It is a supernatural line, not detectable by us.  "He hangeth the earth upon nothing."  This is in the path of planets of our Solar System as seen where they traverse the sky from our point of view.  This is the same word as used in Job 22:14 and Isa. 40:22 and means a circuit (or circle). He sits enthroned above the circuit of the earth. He moves in the circuit of heaven (above the earth). 
29.   ¹ When he put the Moon in orbit on the 4th Day in Gen.1:17, creating the statutes of the Moon in Jer.31:35 so that when the sun stirs up the sea pulling it,  the moon calms it down, resisting it (by gravitational pull).  The word "divide" has this dual meaning.
       By the end of the 3rd Day, the water was in it's bounds the sea basin and coastline, but the unchecked sloshing of 1,000 years had made enough sand, and was prevented altogether from prevailing, on the 4th Day onward. Jer. 5:22
31.   ¹ "or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world" -Psa.90:2
