Darkness
Now this will be an unexpected twist for those who are new. Darkness is grace not 'evil'. God did not live in evil before he said, "Let there be light".
- חשך - life earning interest by the death of the Son
The Son of God could have judged the world and taken a total loss. But he hedged his loss with his own death and not only regained what he would have lost but gained interest; the church.
- חשך - Life of the Son who was commanded to die with the Spirit in his heart
At the wedding in Cana, Jesus removed judgement from the law and chose to give grace instead.

Darkness from man's perspective is increased sin, but from God's it is increased grace. God's perspective is the primary meaning. Before God said "Let there be light" he dwelt in darkness. The Trinty was in perfect love.
- Ro 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
Darkness on the face of the deep
God first loved his creation though it was separated from him. He 'hedged' his loss and waited for the cross.
