First He created a plan. Why create without purpose? Then the Angels, cause they rejoiced when the Heavens & Earth were created (Job 38:7). Then the Heavens & the Earth(aka, the universe; Genesis 1:1). Then the recreation of the disorderly Earth(Genesis 1:2-31), including plants, animals, and mankind.

The first thing God created was not a what, but a who. God's son was the first thing He created. The son of God is the "Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last". He was the first and the last of his father's creation. Everything else was created through the Son.

Colossians 1: 12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

TO THE congregation at Colossae, Asia Minor, the Apostle Paul wrote concerning Jesus Christ, according to the CommonBible: "He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation; for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities-all things were created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together."-Col. 1:15-17. What did the apostle mean by calling Jesus Christ "the first-born of all creation"? Paul's further words enlarge on the matter: "He is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that in everything he might be pre-eminent."-Col. 1:18, CB. Here we find that the Greek words for both "first-born" (protótokos) and "beginning" (arkhé) describe Jesus as the first one of a group of class, "the body, the church," and therefore he has preeminence in this respect. He also has preeminence in being the first one resurrected to endless life from among all the human dead.-1 Cor. 15:22, 23. The same Greek words occur in the Greek Septuagint translation at Genesis 49:3: "Ruben, thou art my first-born [protótokos], thou my strength, and the first [arkhé, "beginning"] of my children." (Compare Deuteronomy 21:17, Septuagint.) From such Biblical statements it is reasonable to conclude that the Son of God is the firstborn of all creation in the sense of being the first of God's creatures. In fact, Jesus refers to himself as "the beginning [arkhé] of God's creation." (Rev. 3:14, CB) The New WorldTranslation renders the phrase in this verse: "the beginning of the creation by God."

"and god said "let there be light" and there was light, and he saw that it was good," etc. pretty sure that's it. it pretty much goes in order from light, to heavens (air, etc) to water, land, birds, fish, plants (sun, moon, and stars thrown in there somewhere), and humans. hope this helps. or just crack open a genesis bible-- it'll be there on the first page practically. hope this helped!

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.

And the evening and the morning were the first day.
According to The Bible in Genesis Chapter 1 verse 3 to 5 God created light on the first day but there is much dispute as to what the word "day" means because just like in our modern English language the Hebrew word "Yom" can refer to an indefinite time period. In light of what we understand about geology, Biology and cosmology I am inclined to tend to believe that the word day in this part of the Bible does mean an indefinite time period but I plan on asking God when I meet him. Till then I cant tell you for sure :)

1. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2. The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. 3. Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. 4. God saw that the light was good; and God 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 morning, one day.

Not the first six days but rather the six days of creation.

"For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it." Exodus 20:11 There is nothing that wasn't created in the six days - "All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." John 1:3 There is no record of anything else that was created until this old creation is replaced with the new one, but that's still in the future - "And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away" Revelation 21:1

There are two creation stories in Genesis: (1) verses 1:1 to 2:4a; (2) 2:4b to 2:22. The first of these (1:1-2:4a) is recognised by scholars as the work of the Priestly (P) source, based on a Mesopotamian myth encountered by the Jews in Babylon. So, the creation account that has the world created in six days, which every Christian learns as a child, did not even exist prior to the sixth century BCE. The second account (2:4b-2:22) predated the other in Judaism but was never considered important, except for the creation of Adam, then later Eve.

In the first biblical creation story, there was a pre-existing watery chaos. The ocean was already present and a wind moved across the surface. The seas rested on the dry land, which appeared on day 3 when God gathered the waters together. The order of creation was as follows: (Day 1) light [day]; (2) the firmament, which was believed to separate the waters of the heavens from the lower waters; (3) By gathering the lower waters in one place the land appeared. Grasses and trees; (4) sun; moon and stars - the lights in the firmament; (5) fish, land creatures and fowl; (6) man, both male and female.

Notice that the light of day was not yet understood to have originated from the sun, although the sun was universally understood to rule the day. That is why it was possible to have grass and trees before the sun was created. It may seem surprising that the basics were already there - the waters and the dry land which first appeared when God separated the waters, the wind and therefore the air. Many experts in Hebrew have carefully examined the texts and confirm that this is what they say. The biblical creations were not ex nihilo.

The universe The firmament

The plants

The luminaries

The birds and fish

Animals and people.


According to tradition, there is only one Genesis creation-narrative, with ch.2 serving as an expansion of the brevity of ch.1, not a separate set of events (Rashi commentary, Gen.2:8). In ch.1, God created the universe from nothing (Exodus 20:11, Isaiah 40:28; Maimonides' "Guide," 2:30; Targum and Nachmanides on Gen. 1:1; Rashi commentary, Gen.1:14), and in ch.2, God performed specific acts within the broader picture.
The same literary devices which the Torah employs to enrich its text, have been used by Bible-critics in an attempt to reassign its authorship.

The Jewish sages, based on ancient tradition, identified many of these devices, which include:

recapping earlier brief passages to elucidate,

employing different names of God to signify His various attributes,

using apparent changes or redundancies to allude to additional unstated details,

speaking in the vernacular that was current during each era,

and many more. While Judaism has always seen the Torah as an intricate tapestry that nonetheless had one Divine source, some modern authors such as Wellhausen (the father of modern Biblical-criticism, 1844-1918) have suggested artificially chopping up the narrative and attributing it to various authors, despite the Torah's explicit statement as to its provenance (Exodus 24:12, Deuteronomy 31:24). This need not concern believers, since his claims have been debunked one by one, as Archaeology and other disciplines have demonstrated the integrity of the Torah. No fragments have ever been found that would support his Documentary Hypothesis, which remains nothing more than an arbitrary claim:

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.

Jewish tradition states that the first thing created by God was the space in which to create the universe. Before creation, time and space did not exist. Only God existed. See also the Related Links.
