In the beginning, there was only an infinite void, shrouded in darkness. God, in His infinite power, brought forth creation, forming the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, with darkness covering the deep. The Spirit of God hovered over the waters, a radiant presence preparing for what was to come. Then God spoke: “Let there be light.” Instantly, brilliant light pierced the darkness, and God saw that it was good. He separated the light from the darkness, calling the light "Day" and the darkness "Night," marking the first day. On the second day, God created the firmament, separating the waters above from the waters below, and He called it "Heaven." On the third day, God gathered the waters into one place, revealing dry land, which He called "Earth," and the seas. He commanded the earth to bring forth vegetation, and it burst with life—grasses, flowers, and trees bearing fruit. God saw that it was good. On the fourth day, God placed the sun to govern the day, the moon to govern the night, and adorned the sky with stars to mark seasons, days, and years. On the fifth day, He filled the seas with creatures of every kind and the skies with birds, blessing them to multiply and fill the earth. On the sixth day, God created animals to roam the land, then made humanity in His own image, male and female, giving them dominion over all creation. God saw all that He had made, and it was very good. On the seventh day, God rested, blessing the day and making it holy. Thus, the heavens and the earth were completed, a masterpiece of divine power, order, and life, reflecting God’s glory and purpose.
