My Bible Chapter 0006



Genesis 1:9 through Genesis 1:13


And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land”, and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.

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. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

And there was evening, and there was morning – the third day.

Commentary and what I've learned today:

I wonder who God was talking to when he named all of these things? To man in the future? To angels?

When God saw that it was good, the trees and the vegetation, why did he not already know this? Could it be that he does let things develop with his plan, but allows other things (environmental) to determine whether it ends up as good or bad?

On a side note, I've been hearing a lot lately about the book of Revelation and how it might relate to our current world events. I'm tempted to skip ahead so I can understand what everyone is talking about.

I am writing the Bible out (word for word) for my own use to try to better understand it. I welcome comments, as this is a learning adventure. The Bible I am reading will put everything into chronological order and offer some studies on the entries. My mind is open and I realize that everyone, including myself, has a different perspective, as well as a different base from which to learn and teach. My initial goal is to enhance my music, and to fulfill a goal to have read the Bible in my lifetime.
