(תּהום , tehōm ; ἄβυσσος , ábussos , Luke 8:31 the King James Version; Romans 10:7 the King James Version; βάθος , báthos , Luke 5:4; βυθός , buthós , 2 Corinthians 11:25 ): The Hebrew word ("water in commotion") is used (1) of the primeval watery waste (Genesis 1:2 ), where some suggest a connection with Babylonian Tiamat in the creation-epic; (2) of the sea (Isaiah 51:10 and commonly); (3) of the subterranean reservoir of water ( Genesis 7:11; Genesis 8:2; Genesis 49:25; Deuteronomy 33:13; Ezekiel 31:4 , etc.). In the Revised Version (British and American) the Greek word first noted is rendered, literally, "abyss." See ABYSS; also ASTRONOMY , III, 7.
