The thought came to me today that while reading this chapter, I need to remember the first tenet, the inspired word. It is all to easy to get very literal and what-if the text when that isn’t what I’m reading it for.
Mary Baker Eddy writes the same thing several different ways in this reading but I underlined them all:
No supposition of error enters there.
God creates neither [1] erring thought, [2] mortal life, [3] mutable truth, nor [4] variable love.
Immortal Mind makes its own record, but [1] mortal mind, [2] sleep, [3] dreams, [4] sin, [5] disease, and [5] death have no record in the first chapter of Genesis.
This is a great support for the beginning/only idea of yesterday.
