The answer is: Mist went up from the earth

Gen 2:6

In the early chapters of Genesis, there's a captivating prehistoric scene painted about Earth's initial state—the motion of mist arising from the ground speaks volumes. Imagine a time before the crude actions of mankind unraveled the lush paradise; this soft fog danced over the terrain and provided sustenance to the flourishing life below, serving as nature’s very own irrigation system. This detail hints at a harmonious interplay between water and earth that crisply reflects within our universe today.

Moreover, this particular method of initial watering contrasts starkly with later accounts that show a world of heavy rain and floods. Instead of tumultuous surges of water, the text introduces us to a gluayground of gentle nurturing, laying foundational spiritual principles about how abundance can rise quietly and seamlessly from the earth itself rather than rugged upheaval.

Fun fact: The “mist” described (often referenced as a “stream” or “crimson spring”) also elegantly echoes in ancient Near Eastern creation stories, where gods would in some way hypernaturally permeate lifeless locations with life through gentle touch—inviting readers to view divine providence as integrative and intimate rather than merely exterior or forceful.

And speaking of connections, as Humans evolve from creatures molded from dust in this same parable, we find deep elements of dependency not just on water, but intimately linked, resting in each breath, symbolizing both spiritual nourishment and our return to elemental roots. Life, in this balance, isn’t just formed—it's fostered, like all of us.
