What did God create first?

Answer 1

Angels. Job 38:1-7 & Revelation 4:11
Genesis 1 - In the begining God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty.....so God said, "Let there be light" So, the first thing God created was the light. On the first day he created light and darkness (day and night)

Answer 2

We are not told what was God's first creation. The scriptures tell us that "Worlds without number have I created" These were created by His son Jesus Christ just as this earth was created. There may be some who will refute this statement, but none the less it is true. God gave His son all power to create that which God so desired.

Answer 3

The universe as a whole. That is what "In the beginning God created the heavens..." means.

Day by day, God created the universe and its contents (Genesis ch.1).God created the universe out of nothing (Exodus 20:11, Isaiah 40:28; Rashi commentary to Genesis 1:14; Maimonides' "Guide," 2:30).Note that the Torah, in describing the Creation, deliberately employs brevity and ellipsis, just as it does in many other topics. See the Talmud, Hagigah 11b.

• On day 1: God created the universe in general, light, and this Earth. The light was not the same as that of the sun. Rather, it was light that God created before the sun, and which emanated from a point in space without any physical source; like what we might term a "white hole."
  
• On day 2: God created the separation between the Earth and the upper atmosphere.
  
• On day 3: God separated the continents from the oceans, and created plants.
  
• On day 4: God created the sun, moon, and stars.
  
• On day 5: God created birds and fish.
  
• On day 6: God created animals and people.
  
• On day 7: God ceased creating, thereby creating the concept of rest.
