Bible Verse: Genesis 1 verse 10

  	     Genesis i. 10.  And God called the dry land Earth; and
  	the gathering together of the waters called He Seas:  and
24	God saw that it was good. 

  	    Here the human concept and divine idea seem con-
  	fused by the translator, but they are not so in the scien-
27	tifically Christian meaning of the text. Upon	                               Spirit names
  	Adam devolved the pleasurable task of find-	                               and blesses 
  	ing names for all material things, but Adam has not yet
1	appeared in the narrative. In metaphor, the dry land
  	illustrates the absolute formations instituted by Mind,
 3	while water symbolizes the elements of Mind. Spirit duly
  	feeds and clothes every object, as it appears in the line
  	of spiritual creation, thus tenderly expressing the father-
 6	hood and motherhood of God. Spirit names and blesses
  	all. Without natures particularly defined, objects and
  	subjects would be obscure, and creation would be full of
 9	nameless offspring, — wanderers from the parent Mind,
  	strangers in a tangled wilderness.
