Genesis Ch. 1 "The Creation"

The First Book of Moses




Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

  • Proverbs 8:22 Wisdom was with God from the beginning.
  • Proverbs 8:22-26 Wisdom was with God.
  • John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, the Word was God.
  • John 1:1-4 All things were made by Him, in Him was life, the darkness comprehend it not. 

Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. (was=became. #1961 hayah; in the Strongs Concordance)

It is extremely important to understand what just happened here. When you properly translate *was* it means (became) and as we just documented in verse 1, God created the world with wisdom and it was perfect! So what made the earth (become) without form, and void? Let's find out what happened between verse 1 and 2. 

  • Isaiah 45:18 He created it not in vain.
  • Isaiah 45:19 There are no secrets. Don't see Me in vain.
  • II Peter 3:5 They are ignorant of this.
  • II Peter 3:6 The world that then was, was overflowed with water and perished.
  • II Peter 3:7 The second earth age is reserved for judgement and perdition of ungodly men. 
  • II Peter 3:8 Be not ignorant of this one thing, 1 day to the LORD is 1,000 years to us.
  • II Peter 3:9 God has patience for His children to come to repentance. 
  • II Peter 3:10 The day of the LORD shall come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away and the elements shall pass away. (Elements=rudiments in Greek, that that is bad).
  • Jeremiah 4:22 My people are is foolish: they are wise to do evil. 
  • Jeremiah 4:23-27 HIGHLY IMPORTANT. God destroyed the first earth age, everything living was destroyed, "and all the cities thereof were broken down" , "The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end." 
satan rebelled in the first earth age and this is what caused the earth to become bad. satan deceived 1/3 of God's children, so God had to either destroy 1/3 of his children or that earth age. He chose the earth age. We will document this more later on throughout the entire bible. 

Genesis 1:3 First day of creation. "Let there be light:"
Genesis 1:4 God divided the light from the darkness. 
Genesis 1:5 God called the light day and the darkness He called night. (Sun and moon not created yet, it is talking about the children of light and darkness). 
  • Revelation 21:23 The Lamb is the light.

"THE HEAVENS AND EARTH WHICH ARE NOW"

Genesis 1:2-5 Darkness and Light. Night and day. 1st Day
Genesis 1: 6-8 Waters. Division between them. 2nd Day
Genesis 1:9-13 Earth. Fruit from it. 3rd Day
Genesis 1:14-19 Day and Night. Sun and Moon. 4th Day
Genesis 1:20-23 Waters. Life from them. 5th Day
Genesis 1:24-31 Earth. Life from it. 6th Day.

It is important to note that in verse 26 it states, "And God said, "Let Us make man in Our image..." This is mankind NOT Adam. This is where the races of people come from. In Genesis 2:7 God "formed man", THIS "man" is Adam. It is easy to document with the Strongs Concordance and/or Companion Bible. Mankind was created, Adam was formed!

We will continue to document this further as we go along.
