GEN
1:25

| JERUSALEM
BIBLE |
(ALTERNATIVE
GENESIS) |
|
God
made every kind of wild beast, every kind of cattle, and
every kind of reptile. God saw that it was good.
|
The
Shining Onesbusied themselves with (cared for)
all kinds of wildlife on the land, and with all kinds
of domestic animals which were plentiful on the ground.
The Shining Onestook a delight in them all.

As discussed in verses 7 and 16,
could certainly have meant 'made' or 'manufactured', but we
do not believe that was the intention here. It could also have
meant 'to busy oneself' as used in 1KIN 20:40 - 'But while your
servant was busywith one thing or another...'; or it
could have meant 'to care for' as used in 2 SAM 19:25 - 'He
has not cared for his feet or his hands'.
The Shining Oneswere not manufacturing,or
makinganimals, but caring for them, and tending them
as all good farmers do.
