Aphotic
Aphotic means lightless; dark.
Genesis informs its readers that prior to God's illumination, the earth was aphotic.
The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. (Genesis 1:2, NASB)
Note: This painting, "The Creation of Light", was painted by Gustave Doré (1832-1883).
