Neither needing to gaze at the Beautiful Idea within His mind so as to create from its mimesis, God only needs to gaze in Genesis 1 at the created order after He wills creation “out of nothing” to know and proclaim its goodness. For every one of His Divine Words and “Let there be’s,” attest to His almighty Word, negating the Grecian and Stoic necessity to behold the Idea before His creation. For God’s λόγος is being carried in His Word, and not carried or emanated from it. The Perfect Idea is necessary within His Mind (a Philonism), if and only if, the Stoic λόγος is emanated from Yahweh’s Dynamic Word.
And as the Holy Word is being carried in the Scriptures of the Soul, the Scriptures of the Soul are also being carried in the Divine Word. And as God’s Word is being carried in the Covenant’s Arc, the Covenant rather than a rational principle,139 grounds the unity of creation.”140 To say that Yahweh made the earth is to confess that it belongs to Him; He is its Lord (Pss. 24:1- 2; 89:11-H 89:12; 95:5). To say that He is sovereign Creator, majestic and worthy of worship, is to say that the heavens declare His glory (Ps. 19:1-4-H 19:2-5). Yahweh must be revered,
139 I assume that he means ‘λόγος.’ Otherwise, it can be argued that the covenant follows from a rational principle. In antiquity, vassal Master-Servant agreements were common to ensure protection of one another and maintain safety and order in societies; practice not much different from Feudal society’s Lord-Serf or Lord- Knight arrangements. Although these covenants arise out of fear, they are governed by the rational desire for order.
