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.

What did God create on the 4th day?
14 According to the Bible, "And on the fourth day he created the sun, the moon and stars, and he set them in the vault of heaven to give light on earth to have charge over day and night and to separate light from darkness." Then God said, "Let lights appear in the sky to separate the day from the night. Let them mark off the seasons, days, and years. 15 Let these lights in the sky shine down on the earth." And that is what happened. 16 God made two great lights-the larger one to govern the day, and the smaller one to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set these lights in the sky to light the earth, 18 to govern the day and night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And evening passed and morning came, marking the fourth day. So the sun, moon, and stars.

The 6 day creation story?
The story has different interpretations depending on which bible is being used as well as who is doing the interpreting. The first five days of creation are much the same in most bibles. It has always been my understanding that there were 7 days of creation. It's on the 6th day when the story seems to take a bit of a twist. God says '..let us make man in our image..'. For some scholars, it is believed and taught that God is simply 'stating'' that He is going to be creating man in His image but did not actually do it on the 6th day. On the 7th day God rested. So now we have 5 consecutive days of creation, and two days when God did not work, the 6th and the 7th.. Immediately following God's day off, the story says that God prepared a garden and begins the forming of Adam. Clearly, it is another day and God is back at work again. Although it is actually the 8th consecutive day, it is widely accepted as being the 6th day of creation. This particular interpretation seems somewhat incomplete. The story of creation as I have known it, was that God did in fact create ' mankind ' on the 6th day, that is to say He populated the entire earth with people of all races. It also seems to make the timeline more accurate. Six consecutive days of creation, the 7th day of rest and the creation of Adam and Eve on the following day. This seems more sensible of an interpretation. A point of interest happened while Caine was argueing with God saying that he had no place to go and that "..they will surely kill me.." Who are " ..they?". Certainly, there were other people on the earth before Adam and Eve.
How many lights did God create on the 4th day?
The intention of the Genesis account of the fourth creation day is not at all to this question specifically but to point to God as the creator and to state what it was He created. Thus, this question can partly be ed today by modern science which has calculated an unimaginatively vast number for the 'lights' referred to in Genesis 1. The sun and the Moon are of course mentioned specifically as our most significant 'lights' but clearly all of the universe is intended as well.Genesis 1:14-1914And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:15And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.16And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.19And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Did God create Day or Night first?
In the beginning of the bible God says "Let there be light", but it doesnt say that he created dark. There was nothing at first, so we may assume that it was dark. So the answer, i think is Day. Answer 2Scientifically speaking, Day and Night are caused by the rotation of the Earth where every 24 hours the Earth will revolve 360 degrees. The Earth is separated into 24 parts known as hours, and these parts are used as to determine what part of the day it is. So we see that the place that the Sun is hitting the Earth is the Day and the other side is the night. Now religiously speaking, God says "Let there be light" in the world of darkness. Thus we can base our answer off of 2 assumptions. 1. The world was never bright until God made it so 2. God made darkness first. Science speaks for itself, but if we are talking about religion as this topic is fielded under, then my two points as stated above will provide the possible choices
