Our story opens with a temporal clause: "When on high," "when God began creating"; We have a wind that sweeps over chaotic waters, Just like the wind of Marduk released into the face of Tiamat, And the Hebrew term is particularly fascinating.

我们的故事以时间状语开始：,“当在天国时““上帝开始创世“,我们读到了掠过恶水的气流，就像Marduk当Tiamat的面所释放的气流，希伯来语的说法尤其迷人。
