### Type

Event

The **Seven Days of Creation**, also known as **Seven Steps of Creation**, are the seven "days" that God took to create Heaven, Earth and their entire army, bringing all of existence through His Word.

## Overview

The Seven Days of Creation are the greatest event recorded in the Bible, where the Lord God creates all existence through His words, giving rise to Heaven, Earth, and humans and animals, with the Children of Eden being created in His image and likeness. Although they are called the Seven Days, they are not earthly days, as the sun and stars did not yet exist when the first day began, with the seven days being symbolic for each period of time in which God created something new in the universe.

The creation of the universe begins before the beginning, when there was only a formless and disorganized void, where the Spirit of God moved back and forth, until God through His words said "let there be light" and there was light. As God formed the universe, he also created his name at creation, starting with the Y that manifests itself from the Planck Epoch, at the beginning of the first day, ending with the H at the end of the sixth day, after the Earth and Adam and Eve were created. The name of God is linked to creation in its entirety, from its beginning to its end, Yud Heh Vah Heh, that is the name, which is said to mean "He Brings Into Existence Whatever Exists".

Obviously, God did not say let there be light in common words or in any existing language. God spoke with ineffable words, with an unknown and transcendent language that no one knows but himself. After finishing creation on the sixth day, God saw everything he had made, from the smallest atom to the most gigantic galaxy, and saw that everything was very good. And on the Seventh Day, God rested.

## Days of Creation

### Before the First Day - ? Ago.

Absolute nothing, there is no heaven, no earth, no life or death, no wind or ground, rock or field, there is only a void of nothing, without shape or size, the uncreated universe is formless and void, and the Spirit of God moves across the abyss.

### First Day - **±** 14,000,000,000 to 13,600,000,000 Ago.

God said "let there be light" and there was light. God creates an ultra-dense and extraordinarily concentrated singularity containing all the elements of creation, an infinitesimally small and dimensionless light, a singular point of zero dimensions. Quickly, this tiny light expands at an ultra-fast speed, massively exceeding the speed of light, breaking the empty Void. A scream is heard, like a mother in labor. It was the universe being born. From the infinite manifestation of this unfathomable and boundless light, the Angels were molded, each according to their kind. God saw that it was good.

### Second Day - ± 13,600,000,000 to 4,600,000,000 Ago.

God separates light from darkness. The Lord creates the first stars and forms the first galaxies and nebulae, thus separating darkness from light. God called Darkness Night, and Light Day. God also creates an immeasurable and boundless amount of parallel worlds, all mirrored in each other, known as parallel universes that are part of the Multiverse. And God saw that it was good.

### Third Day - ± 4,600,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 Ago.

God creates the Solar System and the Earth. God places the Greater Light to light the day, and a Lesser Light to rule the nights. And there was an afternoon, the night passed, and a tomorrow, the fourth day came. And God saw that is was good.

### Fourth Day - ± 1,000,000,000 to 400,000,000 Ago.

The Earth was covered with water, so God said that there should be a separation of the waters above and the waters below, and that dry land should appear. Then, the earth shook and as told by the Creator, the oceans divided, and the Lord placed part of the waters on above of the Earth, while the other part remained on the surface. After that, dry land appeared and a large amount of vegetation began to cover planet earth. And again God saw that it was good.

### Fifth Day - ± 400,000,000 to 300,000 Ago.

God said for the first living beings to arise and then the first marine animals appeared that quickly filled the oceans with life. Among these beings, the Ichthyostega began to come out of the water. And joyfully God saw again that it was good.

### Sixth Day - **±** 300,000 to 6,026 Ago.

At dawn on the sixth day, the first land animals begin to appear on Earth. Everything was in perfect harmony, everything was complete, each animal existed according to its kind, existing as part of a greater whole, everything in its place. At the end of the sixth day, God created Adam, and by his side, Eve, and placed them in a Garden, a paradise to live in. And having finished his work, God saw that everything was very good.

### Seventh Day - ± 6,026 to the present day.

With Heaven and Earth finished along with all their army, happy and proud of their work, God rested and blessed the seventh day, representing that day in human days with the Sabbath, because in six days the Lord created Heaven and the Earth and on the seventh He rested. Whenever God finished his work, he said that it was good, however, on the seventh day, God did not say that, for the seventh day was not over.

It is said that at the end of the seventh Day the "Return", also called the "Awakening", will take place, which is the event referring to the second coming of Christ (the Return) and the awakening of Ayin (the Awakening), which will result in the end of the whole world, thus ending God's creation. Whether there will be an eighth day, or a ninth or tenth, nobody can say.

## Myths and Legends

### Biblical Narrative

The Seven Days of Creation is the first narrative mentioned in the Christian Bible, which is explaining the creation of Heaven and Earth and all of existence. According to the narrative mentioned in the holy scriptures, the Elohim would have created the entirety of existence in six literal 24-hour days and took the seventh day for His rest. On the first Day of Creation, the Earth would be in a state of pure chaos, where heaven and earth were not yet formed, with everything existing in a primordial state. The only things on Earth were darkness, water and the spirit of God that moved over the waters. God then said "Let there be light", and saw that the light was good and separated it from the darkness, calling the light day and darkness night.

On the second day, the Earth was still covered by abyssal waters, so the Elohim says for there to be a Firmament between the waters and for there to be a separation between the waters above and below. On the third day, the Elohim creates the dry Earth, saying that if the waters from below come together, dry earth appears. For the ancient Hebrews, the Earth was a large flat island that sat on top of the waters, supported by columns that kept the land from sinking into the oceans and returning to watery chaos. Still on the third day, God creates all the vegetation on earth, covering the flat disk with a green carpet of grass.

On the fourth day, God creates the stars, the sun and the moon, and places them in the Firmament to move back and forth through the celestial vault, thus creating the diurnal cycle. It should be noted that the Hebrews did not see the sun and celestial bodies as literally being balls of plasma that were spinning in outer space, but they considered the stars to be spiritual beings, that is, Angels, who worked for God. On the fifth day of creation, God commands that there are living beings on Earth such as fish, great whales and all kinds of aquatic beings according to their kind. He also creates birds to fly through the skies across the Firmament. It is remarkable that the biblical narrative bears some resemblance to the modern view of how the first forms of life on the planet emerged, which were in the waters.

On the sixth day, Elohim creates all kinds of living beings, each cattle, reptile, domestic or wild, according to their kind. So YHWH-Elohim says, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness." Elohim then creates man and woman, and man is made in the image of God (both men and women have this image) and is special above all other creatures. God created Adam and his wife Eve as beings of light and material, being both divine and material like Christ's famous dual nature. Adam was created little lower than the angels, being greater than all beings on Earth, created in the image and likeness of God. And YHWH-Elohim saw that everything was very good.

Finally, on the seventh day, YHWH-Elohim rests and blesses it, calling the seventh day the Sabbath. The world would have been created approximately 6 thousand years ago, approximately 4,004 BCE, as mentioned by James Ussher, who states that the world began to be created during the fourth millennium BC, on Sunday 23 October. The interesting thing about the Genesis narrative is the audacity of the author of Genesis in trying to put a narrative that goes from before the creation of the world, without anything that would be "exciting" for the reader, like a battle against chaos, and without a specific narrator, putting a narrator in third person. It is later revealed that there was indeed a narrator present in Genesis, who was Wisdom, the power of God that created the world.

### Gap Theory

Genesis 1:1–2 states, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 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.” The gap theory is the view that God created a fully functional earth with all animals, including the dinosaurs and other creatures we know only from the fossil record. Then, the theory goes, something happened to destroy the earth completely—most likely the fall of Satan to earth—so that the planet became without form and void. At this point, God started all over again, recreating the earth in its paradise form as further described in Genesis. The gap theory, which is distinct from theistic evolution and the day-age theory, is also called old-earth creationism, gap creationism, and the ruin-reconstruction theory.

### Day-Age Theory

In short, this is a belief that the “days” spoken of in the first chapter of Genesis are sequential periods and not literal, 24-hour days. Each day, therefore, is thought to represent a much longer, albeit undefined, period of time, such as a million or more years. This is rooted in an effort to harmonize our understanding of the Bible with what appears to be overwhelming scientific evidence of an “old” earth.
