The Old Testament or Preparation of Salvation A. Undivided Humanity . 4000—2000 B. C. 
1. God Creates the World. Genesis 1 and 2.
1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. But the Spirit of God was upon the face of the waters.
2. And God said, “Let there be light”: and there was light. And God divided the light from the darkness, and He called the light Day, but the darkness He called Night. Thus the evening and the morning were the first day. — On the second day God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters”: and it was so. God thus divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament, and called the firmament Heaven.
— On the third day God said, “Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, that the dry land may appear”: and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. Upon the earth, however, God let grass, herbs and trees grow up, each yielding seed after its kind.
On the fourth day 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.” And it was so; and 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. — On the fifth day God said, “Let the waters bring forth living creatures, and let birds fly in the firmament of heaven.” So God made the tishes and other sea animals, each after its kind, and the birds also each after its kind. And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply.” — On the sixth day God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures, cattle, beast and creeping thing”: and it was so.
3. At the very last, God said, “Let us make man in our image; and let them have dominion over the fish of the seas, and over the foul of the air, and over the cattle, and over every creeping thing upon the earth.” So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him. He formed man’s body of earth, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and thus man became a living soul. The man’s name was A’dam.

And God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Thus the heaven and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. But on the seventh day God rested from all His work, and He blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it.
Bible Verses. Our God is in the heavens; he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased. Psalm 115, 3 — He spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. Psalm 33, 9. — O Lord, how manifold are thy works ; in wisdom hast thou made them all: the eartli is full of thy riches. Psalm 104, 24. — Every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God. Hebrews 3, 4. — Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the eartli and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting thou art God. Psalm 90, 1—2.
Catechism. The First Article.
Hymn. Bless thou the Lord who so wondrously fashioned and made thee, Who in his goodness did evermore prosper and aid thee, Who in thy grief Granted thee help and relief, Shielded and strengthened and saved thee.— Tr. from Kirchenbuch 456, 3.
