Tohu vabohu
The sombre terms of 2a throw into relief the mounting glory of the seven days; and if God alone brings form out of formlessness, he alone sustains it.
In visions of judgment (Jer.
4:23; Isa.
34:11), chaos comes back, termed tōhû and bōhû as here.
Tōhû (without form) is used elsewhere to mean, in physical terms, a trackless waste (e.g.
Deut.
32:10; Job 6:18), emptiness (Job 26:7), chaos (Isa.
24:10; 34:11; 45:18); and metaphorically, what is baseless or futile (e.g. 1 Sam.
12:21; Isa.
29:21).
The rhyming bōhû (void) is found only twice elsewhere (see above), each time paired with tōhû.
In the Old Testament the Spirit is a term for God’s outgoing energy, creative and sustaining (cf.
Job 33:4; Ps. 104:30).
Any impression of Olympian detachment which the rest of the chapter might have conveyed is forestalled by the simile of the mother-bird ‘hovering’ (Moffatt) or fluttering over her brood.
The verb reappears in Deuteronomy 32:11 to describe the eagle’s movements in stirring its young into flight; this aspect of intimate contact must be kept in mind throughout.
Spirit: the spirit was moving: : Eagle mom stirring its young into flight

Form is Christ, we are called to be filled in him.
:
Form and void?
Form and filled WITH THE BREATH!
Not a destructive wind.
A creative wind.
Gives new life and hope!
