This chapter is the beginning of the Bible, and beginnings are important. We learn why the world was made, and how God is “different”.
Among other structural details we will notice is this one (the diagramme may help as you listen):
| Day | Creation | Day | Creation | |
| One | Light | Four | Luminaries | |
| Two | Water and Sky | Five | Birds and Sea Creatures | |
| Three | Land and Vegetation | Six | Land animals (inc. Humans) |
Nice beginning – bravo for the structural inferences – I did a part of Genesis for my class at the Synagogue – http://bmd.gx.ca/genesis-day1-2.htm
I should finish it – someday.
[…] Today we begin at the beginning with the first teo chapters of Genesis. I also dealt with Genesis 1 in a previous post. […]
