Question
In Genesis 6:11 it says “The land became corrupted before G-d” How can it be before G-d if he is the creator?
Answer
I suspect, as someone recently asked me a similar question, that you are understanding the word “before” as meaning “prior to”, in other words, before G-d came into being. However, that is not what it means. “Before” in this context means “in front of.”
