The Bible

If heaven and earth were created in six days or if number 'six' is a biblical symbol does not change this religious story. It does not change the faith of believers. Strictly the Bible is not a scientific or historic book. The Bible is primarily a story of God deeds in favor of a community of followers represented by the Israelites in the old testament and on these days for churches or temples surviving among developed cultures and surrounded by powerful cities.

The Bible is a story of love, care and relationship between God and "His people". It is a story of commitment, agreement between two parties. Men would honor and love their God. God would love, save mankind and give life.

Now I'm going to remain silent so you can find the atmosphere to enjoy this wonderful passage from the Book of Genesis Chapter 1

God created Heaven, Earth, and everything within them in six days.

The creation of light1:1. In the beginning God created heaven and earth.
1:2. The earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; the spirit of God moved over the waters.
1:3. God said: "Let light be made." And light was made.
1:4. God saw that the light was good; and He divided the light from the darkness.
1:5. He called the light Day and the darkness Night, and there was evening and morning, one day.
1:6. Then God said, "Let there be a firmament made amid the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."
