Richard explores the last four Hebrew words in the first verse in the Bible, translated as “the heavens and the earth.” What did apostle Paul mean when he said he was taken to the “third heaven”? The Hebrew word for “heavens” explains this.
אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ ’et ha-shamayim v’et ha-’eretz
“the heavens and the earth”
אֵת ’et, Strong’s lexicon No. H853, usually referred to in lexicons as being an untranslated grammatical signal for the object of a transitive verb
שָׁמַיִם shamayim, Strong’s H8064, heavens
אֶרֶץ ’eretz, Strong’s H776, earth, ground, land
