In each of the next three days these divisions are populated: day four populates the darkness and light with Sun, Moon and stars; day five populates seas and skies with fish and fowl; and finally land-based creatures and mankind populate the land. There is a slow introduction, followed by a double fugue on the words "Des Herren Ruhm, er bleibt in Ewigkeit" ("The praise of the Lord will endure forever"), with passages for the vocal soloists and a final homophonic section.

The number seven, denoting divine completion, permeates Genesis 1: verse 1:1 consists of seven words, verse 1:2 has fourteen, and 2:1–3 has 35 words (5×7); Elohim is mentioned 35 times, "heaven/firmament" and "earth" 21 times each, and the phrases "and it was so" and "God saw that it was good" occur 7 times each. In the first, marked adagio, Adam and Eve sing their prayer, with the chorus singing underneath them accompanied by soft timpani rolls. God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. The first performances in 1798 were mounted by the Gesellschaft der Associierten, a group of music-loving noblemen organized by van Swieten to sponsor concerts of serious music; the Gesellschaft paid the composer handsomely for the right to stage the premiere (Salomon briefly threatened to sue, on grounds that the English libretto had been translated illegally). For example, one passage describing the freshly minted Adam's forehead ended up, "The large and arched front sublime/of wisdom deep declares the seat".In each of the first three days there is an act of division: day one divides the darkness from light, day two the "waters above" from the "waters below", and day three the sea from the land. It explains the navel that appears on Adam, which is at first perplexing because he was created, not born of a woman. Whilst all of the other aspects of creation had been made with the sound of God’s voice, He used a different method to create humans.

Rāqîa, the word translated as firmament, is from rāqa', the verb used for the act of beating metal into thin plates. Additionally, Deivis Campos notes in Clinical Anatomy Journal that the left side of Adam's torso contains an extra concealed rib. Other Christians regard these accounts as more like parables close parable A story told by Jesus through which he teaches and illustrates moral lessons and principles.The sketch prefaces this story, as it is also incomplete in the sense that the only complete component of the drawing is Adam's twisted torso. This means that flowers, rivers, beaches, vegetables, and much more were all created on the third day. As appropriate to the finale of Part II, this repeat chorus is longer and ends more intensely than the first. This is known as stewardship close stewardship Taking responsibility for looking after and caring for something on behalf of another person. A long-standing exegetical tradition holds that the use of a rib from man's side emphasizes that both man and woman have equal dignity, for woman was created from the same material as man, shaped and given life by the same processes.

Genesis 2 is the only place in the Bible where Eden appears as a geographic location: elsewhere (notably in the Book of Ezekiel) it is a mythological place located on the holy Mountain of God, with echoes of a Mesopotamian myth of the king as a primordial man placed in a divine garden to guard the tree of life.Michelangelo's main source of inspiration for his Adam in his Creation of Adam may have been a cameo showing a nude Augustus Caesar riding sidesaddle on a Capricorn. The text is based on Psalm 19:1–3, which had been set by Bach as the opening chorus of his cantata Die Himmel erzählen die Ehre Gottes, BWV 76. And God blessed them; and God said unto them: 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth. The idea that God created the world out of nothing ( creatio ex nihilo) has become central today to Islam, Christianity, and Judaism – indeed, the medieval Jewish philosopher Maimonides felt it was the only concept that the three religions shared [107] – yet it is not found directly in Genesis, nor in the entire Hebrew Bible.
