Create, purge: בֹּרִית – barar

I will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the country where they dwell, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.

(Ezekiel 20:38) NKJV

Purging ties in with the broad narrative of scripture of refining and purification, the agent of which is the Lord Jesus Christ. Here’s the meaning of the Hebrew root from which their word for soap is derived.

Baptism, Cleansing and Regeneration

Joyful boy being baptized at Redemption Hill Church

And the LORD smelled a soothing aroma. Then the LORD said in His heart, “I will never again curse the ground for man’s sake, although the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.

(Genesis 8:21) NKJV

God renewed the ground so that it would bear fruit again. The promise that God made to Noah. Noah’s flood washed away the salts and toxic compounds that had accumulated. Earth was baptized.

Cursed Earth

And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

(Genesis 3:17-19) KJV

Given the context of our core accretion model and the evidence of the destruction and decay of planet Earth we may deduce that the curse that God placed upon the ground was nuclear decay.

The Original Sin

Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned

(Romans 5:12) NKJV

The original sin is the reason why God cursed the Earth, but it isn’t the reason for why the creation is in a fallen state. A lot of people haven’t grasped this, because how can the two things be different?

Hydroxyl (OH)

Hydroxyl (OH-) and Hydrogen (H+) form an unstable plasma called water.

Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

(Isaiah 1:16) KJV

If you thought that we had gone off the deep end before, then you should know that the deep end also has a deep end. We’re combining the gospel of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ with Chemistry and Physics.

Removing the Curse

And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

(Genesis 8:20-21) KJV

Noah’s flood pictures the cleansing that we receive symbolically in baptism. The Earth was baptized and regenerated. Harmful pollutants which had been accumulating since the fall of man were washed into the oceans.
