Smart question, the kind I like to hear. According to the "plain view" account of Genesis, the sun was created on the fourth day, (Gen 1:16) so many question how could vegetation be made on the third day (Gen 1:11) and populate the earth when as yet there was no sunlight? The answer is simple. Genesis is warning us not to take the context at face value because it was written in metaphoric and esoteric language.
The Book of Keys and the Safar Ha-Zohar (Both are secret doctrines of The Bible) states that the fruit tree and the herb that God created on the third day are angels that cast forth their seed into the world from which come all living. Grass signifies mortal flesh, while the offspring of the fruit tree signifies the angel that brings forth immortal offspring.
God made dry land and he made grass and plants on the third day!
God said let there be light
Genesis 1: 11-13 The third day.
Melons were "discovered" on the third day when God said, "Let there be..." and mature vegetation appeared all over the earth.
If I'm correct, on the third day:6 Then God said, "Let there be a space between the waters, to separate the waters of the heavens from the waters of the earth." 7 And that is what happened. God made this space to separate the waters of the earth from the waters of the heavens. 8 God called the space "sky."And evening passed and morning came, marking the second day.9 Then God said, "Let the waters beneath the sky flow together into one place, so dry ground may appear." And that is what happened. 10 God called the dry ground "land" and the waters "seas." And God saw that it was good.After this it says he created vegetation, and considering that i would assume that rivers would exist, thus rivers would have been created on the third day.
On the third day god created the dry as well as the wet land, he also made the plants.
Nothing. On the seventh day God rested.
Yes god did create the sun on the first day. NO! He created the sun AND the moon on the 4th day!!!
the 6th day
From"Young Women of Faith Bible-NIV" Genesis 1-2 9And God said, "let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so.10God called the dry ground "land" and gathered waters he called "seas." And God saw that it was good.11Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed baring plants and trees on the land that bare fruit with seed in it, according to the various kinds." And it was so.12The land produced vegetation: plants baring seeds according to their kinds and trees baring fruit according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13And there was evening and there was morning-the third day.
According to the ESV Bible, Genesis 1:9-13-- 9 And God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear." And it was so. 10 God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good. 11 And God said, "Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth." And it was so. 12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
They are listed in Genesis ch.1. Briefly, on the First Day, God created the heavens, the Earth, and light; on the Second Day: the firmament; on the Third Day: He separated the oceans from the continents and also created plants; on the Fourth Day, He created the sun, moon and stars; on the Fifth Day, He created fish and fowl; on the Sixth Day, He created animals, and Adam and Eve; and on the Seventh Day, He ceased from creating.
