    There are a number of interesting intuitions buried in the word translated
    as The Deep (Tehom) in Genesis 1.2. The accent is on the second syllable and
    there is a Shewa under the Tav, so it sounds pretty much like t' HOM, not
    far from the onomatopoetic HUM. Indeed, Gesenius and Strong trace it to the
    Hebrew root HUM (Heh Waw Mem) which basically means "to put into motion, to
    disturb" like the waves of the sea. It is translated as "rang again" in I
    Sam 4.5:

    And when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel
    shouted with a great shout, so that the earth *rang again*.

    The actual word translated as "and rang again" is WaTehom which is an
    anagram of Tehom in Hebrew.

    Another very interesting anagram, especially in light of the darkness
    associated with the Deep, is HaMavet (Death, w/ article). This word is used
    in Isaiah 25:

    He will swallow up death (HaMavet) in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe
    away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take
    away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.

    This links to George's intuition about the appropriate song hummed in the
    beginning, Christ lag in Todensbanden (Christ lies in the bands of death).
    Indeed, He is the Lamb slain from before the foundation of the World.

    Finally, the numerical weight of the Deep, Tehom, is 451, which coincides
    with value of the phrase Et Kol, meaning Everything, or The All. This phrase
    is used to describe all creation in Genesis 1.31:

    And God saw every thing (Et Kol) that he had made, and, behold, it was very
    good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

    Et Kol is spelt Aleph Tav Kaph Lamed. Aleph and Tav are the first and last
    letters of the Hebrew alphabet. They encompass Everything and Seal the Bible
    in the form of the Wheel, like a Capstone (cf. Zech 4.7). They correspond to
    the Alpha and Omega used by the Creator to identify Himself in Revelation
    1.8. As an aside, it should be noted that the numerical value of Alpha +
    Omega is 801 (commented on by Ireneus) and this coincides with the value of
    Ho Ktisas (THE CREATOR) = 801. This should cause a pause, should it not? It
    is the Creator Who delcared "I am Alpha and Omega!" It is my assertion that
    the hidden hand of the Lord God Almighty guided the developement of the
    Hebrew and Greek languages to declare His glory. I believe there is plenty
    of evidence to back this up.

    Returning to my main point. Et Kol is symmetrical on the Bible Wheel. Draw a
    Figure 8 passing through (in order) Aleph and Tav and Kaph and Lamed, and
    you spell EVERYTHING and you see it symmetrically displayed on the Bible
    Wheel. Of course, this kind of thing is to be expected when the everlasting
    Word of Almighty God is mapped onto the finite, yet infinitely symmetric,
    form of the Circle. Graphics and related identities are available on my
    site:
