...what did "who" mean by that?

In the beginning god created... nothing because he doesn't exist

It means he derived from nothingness (a thing) both heaven and earth (two beings) from a will to determinism, placing a value judgement onto it with a consideration for a non-being possibility in it.

It's so much fun applying Sartre's concept of being to everything.

God's one of those assholes who likes to refer to himself in the third person. It's best not to read to much into what he says.

It means that God (the global syntactic operator of reality) made the first distinction between the subject and the transcendent other, the initial catalyst for alterity which defines existence as we know it

No, it means he first gave true nothingness a thing to be a thing, which in its default non-being state the options of either nihilating it or accepting it into his being in non-being transcendance and attempt to hold the being in being together as long as possible in effort of realizing the expectation of its eventual and impossible reality putting him in a state of perpetual preparation of an action which will never come because the minute he gets distracted from his syssaphilian task of non-being to being creation we (given being in his non-being transcendance of his own being) will cease to exist.
