The earth is a planet and seems to have been created before day 1 in the first creation account in Genesis. The ancients did not realise that the other planets were worlds as large as our own; they simply thought of them as lights placed in the firmament, just above the earth, which was the centre of the universe. Genesis says that God created the lights in the firmament on the fourth day.

What did God create on the 6th and 7th day?
Day by day, God created the universe and everything in it (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.See also:Is there evidence against Evolution?Can you show that God exists?Seeing God's wisdom
Do all planets turn?
All planets turn on their axis. This is called the planet's rotation; one complete rotation is equal to one day on that planet.
Are days of the week named after planets?
Some of them are. In Old English, “Sunday” comes from Sunnandaeg, or Sun’s day, followed by “Monday” which stems from Monandaeg, or Moon’s day. The rest of the day names with which we are familiar stem from Anglo-Saxon names for gods in Teutonic mythology. Tuesday, or Tiwesdaeg, comes from Tiu, or Tiw, the Anglo-Saxon name for Tyr, the Norse god of war. Wednesday, or Wodnesdaeg, refers to Woden, or Odin, the supreme deity. Similarly, Thursday, Thursdaeg, originates from Thor, the god of thunder (corresponding to the Roman god Jupiter, or Jove). Friday, or Frigedaeg, is derived from Frigga, the wife of Woden and goddess of love and marriage. Saturday, or Saeterndaeg, refers to Saturn, the ancient Roman god of agriculture, fun, and feasting.
