Big bang, etc... de melkweg, de zon, de planeten waaronder de zon en de maan. Vele miljarden jaren heeft dit geduurd.Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Het was donker op het oppervlak van de zee. Waarom zou het donker zijn op zee niveau? Omdat de atmosfeer geen licht door liet. Volkomen logisch: Er was nog geen zuurstof! De lucht bestond uit CO2, waterdamp en verschillende vulkanische gassen. Niet echt een prettige omgeving.2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
Langzaam werd de atmosfeer iets minder ondoorlatend. Is vanaf dit moment al licht op zee niveau.3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morningthe first day.

Voor het eerst kon men tot de horizon kijken. De atmosfeer was zo transparant geworden op zee niveau dat men ruim 15 km kon zien.6 And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." 7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morningthe second day.

Geen idee hoe, maar er kwam land te voorschijn uit de zee.9 And God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground "land," and the gathered waters he called "seas." And God saw that it was good.
Plantengroei. Voor het eerst fotosynthese die zuurstof in de atmosfeer introduceert.11 Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morningthe third day.

De zuurstof die de planten genereren reageert met de bestaande atmosfeer die daardoor van samenstelling veranderd. Deze wordt daardoor snel helemaal transparant. Voor het eerst werden de zon, de maan en de sterren zichtbaar vanaf zee niveau.14 And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so. 16 God made two great lightsthe greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening, and there was morningthe fourth day.

De eerste dieren, eerst in de zee en daarna in de lucht.20 And God said, "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth." 23 And there was evening, and there was morningthe fifth day.

Dieren op het land.24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
De mensheid.26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."
29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the groundeverything that has the breath of life in itI give every green plant for food." And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morningthe sixth day.
-- einde van fase 6 --
En deze dag duurt nog steeds voort.2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.
2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3 And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
