בר(אש)ית : a covenant ברית with man אש at the center

ברא-שית : created ברא an appointment/six שית

בר-אשי-ת : the son בר – offered total devotion (fire offerings) אשי – (makes it an object) ת

בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ Ge 1:1

The chapter 'The Big bang' discusses how the first written revelation from God to man explodes from the hieroglyphic of the א aleph. Ge 1:1 says the same thing as the first word of Ge 1:1 and the same as the aleph.

John begins John 1 with an exposition of Ge 1:1.

* revelation to man, pref: in ב * revealed ר * I, created, reconciled (at end), separate, holy, Spirit, firmament א

* revelation to man, pref: in ב * fear, see, discern רא

* son of, cereal, field, purity, neat בר * I, created, reconciled (at end), separate, holy, Spirit, firmament א

* come, enter, set בא * revealed ר

God, judge, God separated from man by ignorance אלהים
