From the Judeo-Christian Tradition:

In the Beginningness Elohim, the Unmanifest Infinite, evoked
the principles of oceanic Consciousness and of manifest form. (1)

And form was potential only, as ardor struggled
to pierce the visage of the unknowing Void,
and the spirit of the Unmanifest Infinite, Be-coming,
in-spired the yearning abyss. (2)

And Elohim, Infinite Be-coming, informed, “Light become!” and Light became. (3)

And Elohim perceived Light as fruit-ful,
And Elohim birthed (which is to say, “differentiated”) Light from the Void. (4)

And Infinite Be-coming recognized the Light as active, manifesting -- and the Void as repose, gestating. Movement and repose, one cycle, the first manifestation. (5)

And Elohim informed, “a refining of oceanic Consciousness, become! and differentiate water from water, individuated Consciousness from oceanic Consciousness!” (6)

And Infinite Becoming distinguished between the rarified principle of aether - space - and the densified principle of matter. (7)

And Elohim designated the aetheric principle as the realm [mayim: ocean; ocean of Consciousness] of vibration [shem: vibration; light; sound; divine name]: shem-mayim, which we call “Heaven.” Movement and repose, one cycle, the second manifestation. (8)
