Fish

A Fish is any creature that lives in water, including mammals such as whales and dolphins. (see: On archaic definitions)

Fish were created on same day as birds, and are therefore considered opposites. Fish precedes the creation of mankind and land creatures. Because they live in water, they are associated with the primordial chaotic waters at the beginning of time.



Fish in the Old Testament
In the book of Jonah, a whale swallows up the prophet Jonah. Three days later, the whale spits him up on dry land.

Fish in the New Testament
In the gospel of Matthew, the fish with the gold piece is one of Jesus' miracles.

''“But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.” - ''Matthew 17:27 NIV This miracle is a manifestation of the Hidden Spark symbol.
