"Rabbi Nehemiah of Kefar Sihon expounded Exodus 20:11 as indicating three primal elements (heaven, earth and water) in the creation of the universe (in contrast to Greek philosophy which accepted four basic elements). This was expanded by the school of Hillel, to suggest that each of the three elements was created on a separate day, then after three days, each brought forth three species." CMI
For in six days the LORD
made heaven and earth, the sea,
and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day:
Exodus 20:11
Hmmmm...????
1) The HEAVEN above symbolizing the Father God?
2) The EARTH the Christ (Messiah) would come down to dwell & die among men?
3) The WATER of the regeneration of the Holy Spirit?
