1 The Old Testament The First Creation Account Written in Hebrew. A collection of books. Jewish scriptures. Prophets, writings, history. In the beginning, God made the heavens and the earth. However, there was a lack of order: the earth was formless, there was darkness over the surface of the deep and God's Spirit was hovering over the waters. So God spent six days creating in order to perfect the world. At the end of each day, once God was satisfied with his creation, he rested. Day One: Light, night and day. Day Two: Heavens and sky. Day Three: Land and sea, plants and trees. Day Four: Sun, moon and stars. Day Five: Sea creatures and birds; told to multiply and to fill the sea and sky. Day Six: Land animals. Man in God s image. Given power over all of the other creatures, blessed, told to reproduce and fill the earth and to rule over it. Day Seven: Day of rest. Blessed. Sabbath. 4,000 B.C.
