The Cave of Treasures 2
The Creation: Second Day
On the Second Day the Lower Heaven was made and called REKt’A, meaning what is sold and fixed or firmament.
1nd on the Second Day God made the Lower Heaven, and called it REKt’A [that is to say, “what is sold and fixed,” or “firmament”]. This He did that He might make known that the Lower Heaven doth not possess the nature of the heaven which is above it, and that it is different in appearance from that heaven which is above it, for the heaven above it is of fire.
2 And that second heaven is NUHRA (i.e. Light), and this lower heaven is Darpitión, and because it hath the dense nature of water it hath been called “Réki’a.” And on the Second Day God made a separation between the waters and the waters, that is to say, between the waters which were above [Réki’a] and the waters which were below.
3 And the ascent of these waters which were above heaven took place on the Second Day, and they were like unto a dense black cloud of thick darkness. Thus were they raised up there, and they mounted up, and behold, they stand above the Réki’a in the air; and they do not spread, and they make no motion to any side.
Did You Know?
On the Second Day the Lower Heaven was made and called REKt’A, meaning what is sold and fixed or firmament.
The heaven above the Lower Heaven consists of fire and differs wholly in nature and appearance from it.
The second heaven bears the name NUHRA meaning Light, while the lower heaven is called Darpitión.
Because the lower heaven has the dense nature of water it received the name Réki’a.
The waters raised above heaven on the Second Day resemble a dense black cloud of thick darkness and remain motionless.
