It has meanings beyond us as humans, and if you believe in God, thats not inconceivable. After all, we are only human. We are limited in what we can learn, see, and judge. Even when we acquire more knowledge, we realize how little we have scratched the surface. The philosophers of times past have said "The more I learn, the more I learn how little I know". No one is a superhuman as evidenced from history.
Now what connotation were you referring to earlier regarding the word expansion in Arabic, as opposed to the English translation?
