Paragraph 4. THE CREATOR
290
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”:128
three things are affirmed in these first words of Scripture: the eternal God
gave a beginning to all that exists outside of himself; he alone is Creator
(the verb “create” – Hebrew bara – always has God for its subject).
the totality of what exists (expressed by the formula “the heavens and the
earth”) depends on the One who gives it being.
