Genesis 1:6-8

Genesis 1:6-8



And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water."So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning-the second day.



Okay, so this is the second day. Wow, it took me more than one day just to study what He did in one day! And I got to admit, this I'm having to read several times. I've read Genesis 1 many times, but I've never taken it apart and really look at the individual parts before now. I never thought about their behind "water separated from water." Maybe that's what He means by the earth being formless. Maybe it was entirely made of water. After all, water is pretty formless. So, then, maybe all the planets were water. So he separated them on day two by creating the sky. Look at the sky every once in a while today. Didn't he do a beautiful job?

  2. Yes, I would study it more indepth, but with our computers on the fritz I have not been able to do the research I would like to do on these passages. I also can't afford the research books I would like to get. Commentaries and what-not, so I could write serious devotionals and other books on Christian topics and maybe publish something and use my greatest love in all of life to earn some money for my family. That is my dream.
