So, my speculation, what I am curious about, is as to whether or not this first occurrence, along with all of its implications according to the definition, could in fact be referring in some measure to evolution. Not really trying to reconcile accounts here, just curious.

The translation I use is a book: 'In the Beginning of', by Judah Landa, 2004. He is a biblical scholar who has retranlated Genesis. His starts by changing the tranlation of biraishit (the first word) as "in the beginning of" which changes the whole meaning as he explains. He cites other areas where this is the accepted translation.
