Genesis 1
Genesis 1:1-5
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.
Berean Standard Bible · public domain
Scripture opens with a God who speaks, and a world that answers. Six days of separation and naming, one day of rest. The pattern of creation — speaking order into chaos — runs through the rest of the Bible.
