This word 'Spirit' is 'ruwach' in Hebrew, and it means 'wind, by resemblance breath' (Strong's no. 7307). This is when God's Spirit 'spoke', starting the cleansing of that state of 'ruin' and began this earth age (Flesh Age) we are now in. This act is also referred to in John 3:3-8, Romans 8. You'll also see this 'ruwach' translated as the 'four winds' in several places in the King James +Version.
     I call your attention to this phrase "the face of the waters". The word 'face' is simply the Hebrew word 'paniym' meaning 'in the presence of' (Strong's 6440). God's Spirit was before the presence of the waters. This is important, because you'll find there is no mention of God creating earth matter past Genesis 1:1. These "waters" were outstretched over the whole earth, covering all of it, and that's how God destroyed that time of old to end Satan's rebellion. Even at this verse, the earth is under all those "waters".

 

 

 

Isaiah 45:18: For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord: and there is none else.

 

Jer.4: 1 God calleth Israel by his promise. 3 He exhorteth Judah to repentance by fearful judgements. 19 A grievous lamentation for the miseries of Judah.

 

Jer. II: 1 Jeremiah proclaimeth God’s covenant, 8 rebuketh the Jew’ disobeying thereof, 11 prophesieth evils to come upon them, 18 and upon the men of Anathoth, for conspiring to kill Jeremiah.

 

Peter 3: 1 He teacheth the duty of wives and husbands to each other, 8 exhorting all men to unity and love, 14 and to suffer persecution. 19 He declareth also the benefits of Christ toward the world.

 

…all in the Manuscript languages: The only difference is, this time it will be done with God's 'consuming fire’ and not by water as in the time of old and also with the flood of Noah's day.
     Wow! That's a lot from one little ole' verse in Isaiah 6 isn't it? Notice that it took a study of The Word from other Books in order to come to the Truth of this Message? Not to worry if you're in Christ, for God The 'Consuming Fire' (Heb.12) will not hurt us with this burning up of the 'rudiments' of man's works, for it will be a good old warming of peace and love for God's people. It will purge our 'silver', but will melt Satan's 'tin.'

 

Ps.119:119. This psalm containeth sundry prayers, praises, and professions of obedience.

 

 Prv.25:4; Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.

 

Prv. 26:23; Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

 

Isa.1:22:  Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water.

 

25; And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin.

 

Ezek.22:18-19: Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross:  all they are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are even the dross of silver.

19. Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because ye are all become dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.

 

Studying the Word in this manner dealing with the subject of Cain is no different.
