The same term has also been extended to parallel concepts in the Middle East and North Africa, such as the abstract conflict of ideas in the Egyptian duality of Maat and Isfet or the Chaos in the Old World of Horus and Set. The term may refer to a state of non-being prior to creation [9] [10] or to a formless state. This model of a primordial state of matter has been opposed by the Church Fathers from the 2nd century, who posited a creation ex nihilo by an omnipotent God. In modern biblical studiesthe Chaos in the Old World chaos is commonly used in the context Chaos in the Old World the Torah and their cognate narratives in Ancient Near Eastern mythology more generally. Hesiod and the Pre-Socratics use the Greek term in the context of cosmogony. Hesiod's Chaos has been interpreted as either "the gaping void above the Earth created when Earth and Sky are separated from their primordial unity" or "the gaping space below the Earth on Chaos in the Old World Earth rests. In Hesiod 's TheogonyChaos was the first thing to exist: "at first Chaos came to be" or was[20] but next possibly out of Chaos came GaiaTartarus and Eros elsewhere the son of Aphrodite. The notion of the temporal infinity was familiar to the Greek mind from remote antiquity in the religious conception of immortality. They believed that the world arose out from a primal unity, and that this substance was the permanent base of all its being. Anaximander claims that the origin is apeiron the unlimiteda divine and perpetual substance less definite than the common elements. Everything is generated from apeironand must return there according to necessity. The lower limit Chaos in the Old World down to the "apeiron" i. At the beginning there was only Chaos, Night, dark Erebus, and deep Tartarus. Earth, the air and heaven had no existence. Chaos in the Old World, blackwinged Night laid a germless egg in the bosom of the infinite deeps of Erebus, and from this, after the revolution of long ages, sprang the graceful Eros with his glittering golden wings, swift as the whirlwinds of the tempest. He mated in deep Tartarus with dark Chaos, winged like himself, and thus hatched forth our race, which was the first to see the light. That of the Immortals did not exist until Eros had brought together all the ingredients of the world, and from their marriage Heaven, Ocean, Earth and the imperishable race of blessed gods sprang into being. Thus our origin Chaos in the Old World very much older than that of the dwellers in Olympus. We [birds] are the offspring of Eros; there are a thousand proofs to show it. We have wings and we lend assistance to lovers. How many handsome youths, who had sworn to remain insensible, have opened their thighs because of our power and have yielded themselves to their lovers when almost at the end of their youth, being led away by the gift of a quail, a waterfowl, a goose, or a cock. Aristotle understands chaos as something that exists independently of bodies and without which no perceptible bodies can exist. Fifth-century Orphic cosmogony had a "Womb of Darkness" in which the Wind lay a Cosmic Egg whence Eros was hatched, who set the universe in motion. In Hawaiian folklorea triad of deities known as the Ku-Kaua-Kahi AKA "Fundamental Supreme Unity" were said to have existed prior to and during Chaos ever since eternity, or put in Hawaiian terms, mai ka po maimeaning 'from the time of night, darkness, Chaos'. They eventually broke the surrounding Po 'night' and light entered the universe.

Because of association with the Genesis creation narrative Chaos in the Old World, where "the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters" Gen. Ramon Llull — wrote a Liber Chaosin which he identifies Chaos as the primal form or matter created by God. Swiss alchemist Paracelsus — uses chaos synonymously with "classical element" because the primeval chaos is imagined as a formless congestion of all elements.

The term chaos has been adopted in modern comparative mythology and religious studies as referring to the primordial state before creation, strictly combining two separate notions of primordial waters or a primordial darkness from which a new order emerges and a primordial state as a merging of opposites, such as heaven and earth, which must be separated by a creator deity in an act of cosmogony.
