According to Dirac's idea of the space - like consistency conditions,we def
ine the space - like wave functions through introducing the space - like fa
ctor, which is equivalent to Bethe - Salpeter wave function in physical con
tent. The space - like form of Bethe - Salpeter equation of both bound stat
e and scatter state are derived in terms of the universal rearranging techn
ology of interaction kernel. Moreover, they are extended to many particles
case. We also obtain the normalization condition of the space-like function
for bound state and the solution of non - homogeneous term in the space -
like form of Bethe - Salpeter equation for scatter state. Consequently the
formalism of the relativistic space - like equation is finally built.
