Is it heresy to believe God is so paradoxical, He is also “The Nothing”?
My animation team produced this Christian short film for 2024 to create a new bridge to Buddhists fascinated by “The Nothing”.
Paradox
Bible studies (non-denominational) with a focus on mathematics and logic, by Greg Glaser
Fantastic! Curious about the writing and the meaning of the word that appears at 3:13
Thank you! In biblical Hebrew, that’s the first word in the Book of Genesis, בראשית. The most common translation is, “In the beginning”. In its component parts, the word involves an observing head ( ראש ) entering ( ב) being/existence ( ית )
Note that in Hebrew ית is not in Strong’s dictionary, but in first century Aramaic (spoken by Christ and the apostles) it meant “being/existence.” Indeed, it is the root of אית in John 1:1, which is utilized in its most fundamental sense to describe God simultaneously having the word and existing as the word.
Thank you. Ive been contemplating this film for a while now.
