The next word revealing another chamber under the earth is the Greek abussos, which is<br />

translated in English as the word abyss. This word alludes to an unspecific area under the<br />

earth that is a huge void, an empty cavity that cannot be measured. The King James Version<br />

says “Deep,” but the Greek word is abussos, or the abyss.<br />

tehom: deep, sea, abyss<br />

‏ּתְ‏ הֹום Word: Original<br />

Tehom (Hebrew: ‏ּתְ‏ הֹום ), literally the Deep or Abyss (Greek Septuagint: ábyssos), refers to the<br />

Great Deep of the primordial waters of creation in the Bible. It is first mentioned in Genesis 1:2:<br />

“And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And<br />

the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.” Thus, the word tehom is linked to the sea<br />

in Job 28:14 and to the depths of the earth in Psalm 71:20.<br />
