Genesis 1:1

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Breakdown

God in the Hebrew (Ahlahayam) is plural - Ahla means power, -yam makes it plural, therefore 'powers', i.e. In the beginning the powers.... "God" here represents Yahawashi (which is the real name of "Jesus" in the Paleo-Hebrew) and the angels. (John 1:1, Hebrews 1:2, Colossians 1:16). Further proof that God is plural is Genesis 1:26, Let us make man in our image.

Genesis 1:11

And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

Breakdown

The Most High designed the plants and animals with seed in themselves to keep producing. This solves the age-old conundrum, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?": The chicken with the egg inside. This verse also goes into proving that the sun is not the life force of the earth, as the grass, herbs and fruit trees were growing before the sun was made.

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Breakdown

This verse proves that God here is referring to more than one entity. The image is referring to order, i.e. the laws. let them have dominion Man was given power over all the animals. During the time of Adam and Noah, all animals feared man (Genesis 9:2). The animals will go back to being in fear in the Kingdom of Israel (Isaiah 11:8). Note Man had already been created at this point, but the angels were saying "let's make man different from the animals", "let's give them the laws and order".

Genesis 2:4

These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,

Breakdown

This is the first occurrence of the LORD's name, Yahawah, in the Bible. generations is not talking about genealogies (angels do not have sex, Matthew 22:30), but the record of what the Yahawashi (Jesus) and the angels did (Hebrews 1:2, Colossians 1:16). The LORD God ultimately gets all of the credit, thus why it says here that he made the earth and the heavens (e.g. how King Solomon got the credit for building the House of God when it was his servants).
