Summary
And the creatures of the heaven and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made, and the ten things which he created between the suns; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
And God blessed the seventh day more than all the days of the week, and hallowed it: because that in it he rested from all his work which God had created and was still to do.
These are the generations of the heaven and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made earth and heaven.
And no plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet germinated: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
The cloud of majesty came down from the throne of majesty and filled itself with water from the ocean, and then rose up from the earth and gave rain to water the whole face of the ground.
And the Lord God created man with two inclinations. And he took dust from the place of the Temple and from the four winds of the world, and he mixed them from all the waters of the world and he created him ruddy, black and white.
