The Hebrew word for the ark, "teivah", can also mean written word = word as written with letters.

So the written Torah can be seen as an ark of which the first verse Genesis 1:1 forms the top or head

Vernon Jenkins being the one to work it out

That the ark of Noach indeed can be seen as the written Torah as a whole might be confirmed in Genesis 8:14 that has same numerical value as Genesis 1:1, viz. 2701

Genesis 8:14 was about the 365th day after the beginning of the flood

Weinreb (in "De Bijbel als Schepping") saw the ark as a pyramide with invisible top, which makes much think of Jenkin's visualisation of Genesis 1:1 supported by the first word of Genesis 1:2, as shown above

The first word of Genesis 1:2 takes up the last word of Genesis 1:1

"and the earth was "tohu vavohu" "

LXX had ἡ δὲ γῆ ἦν ἀόρατος καὶ ἀκατασκεύαστος

ἀόρατος = invisible

ἀκατασκεύαστος

κατασκευάζω was in Mark 1:2,

Καθὼς γέγραπται ἐν τῷ Ἠσαΐᾳ τῷ προφήτῃ, Ἰδοὺ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, ὃς κατασκευάσει τὴν ὁδόν σου:

LXX Genesis 8:14,

ἐν δὲ τῷ μηνὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ, ἑβδόμῃ καὶ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνός, ἐξηράνθη ἡ γῆ.

and in the second month, on the seventeenth of the month, the earth became dry

Genesis 1:1 showed triangle 73 (= 2701)

Genesis 1:1 + the first word of Genesis1:2 showed triangle 77 (=3003)

73 = "chochmah" = wisdom

"with wisdom he founded the earth"

Proverbs 3:19

But what is 77?

You might come to think that 77 is the initials of "alei zayit" -- the olive leaf which is the sign of Jonah

Without the letter "hey" added to "shishi" in Genesis 1:31 the world would have remained in the state of "tohu vavohu".

What is this "hey"?

"hey" the middle letter of "tzohar", the roofwindow of the ark that touched the 50th cubit and from where Noach sent forth the raven ad the dove; the dove that returned with the plucked off olive leaf in its mouth
