Bible Question:
Was everything really created in 7 days? |
Bible Answer: Actually 6 days, the Bible says in (Gen 1:1 KJV) In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. The first chapter of Genesis tells us day by day what was made, ending each time with and the evening and the morning was (x) for the number of the day. God did not give a name to each of the first 6 days only a number, he did give a name to the 7th day he named it the Sabbath day. Now last verse in Ch. 1 (Gen 1:31 KJV) And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Notice it says God saw every thing that he had made, and it was VERY GOOD… (Gen 2:1 KJV) Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. (Gen 2:2 KJV) And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. (Gen 2:3 KJV) And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. |
