Foundation: καταβολῆς – katabolé

He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

(Hebrews 9:26) NKJV

The “foundation-plan” typically relates to Christ’s incarnation, i.e. coming to Earth in the flesh to be our Redeemer. This divine plan was set and sealed (guaranteed) before creation.

Hō·w·lā·lə·tî

The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

(Proverbs 8:22-31) KJV

God the Son was begotten in an act of conception. It’s part of the meaning of the Greek phrase the foundation of the world. The same event is rendered from Hebrew as childbirth, where we get the word howl.

Conception: καταβολῆς – katabole

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

All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

(Matthew 13:34-35) KJV

In Genesis 1:2 we have all three aspects of the Holy Trinity if you accept the premise that the deep, pure water, is God the Son who later lived as Jesus of Nazareth.

Predestination

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

(Romans 8:28-30) KJV

We need to tie together the scientific and Biblical rationalization of Matty’s Paradigm with the message of peace and comfort that the Bible has for those who love the Lord.

The Foundation of the World

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

(Revelation 13:8) NKJV

There was an act of conception and the Son was begotten. This is referred to in the Greek phrase the foundation of the world. So, why was the lamb slain from the foundation of the world, his own birth?
