Bible Answer: Is this a question? In Genesis 1:5, the word echad can be translated either one or first. In Genesis 1:8, sheniy translates second. Sheliyshiy, third, in 1:13, and so on. As for one day or first day, it is a matter of translation versus context. One day, first day; Another day, second day, and so on. |
