nope that would be the second day according to scripture
in the beginning note heaven not capitalized :
Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
on the second day He made the firmament He called Heaven: hence the name of the firmament. that is different from what God created in the beginning. the firmament is actually a gas hence matter where as space "heaven" is a vacuum or void of matter
Gen 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
the text is in front of you, and you don't get that much clear.
Misunderstanding.... Below is a Repost.
In Genesis 1:1 The Invisible Almighty God Father first
CREATED the elements needed..... in order for his Son to Physically
make/form the heavens and the earth with his own hands.
In the context of Genesis 1:1-2, I see the narrative as saying:
In the beginning God Created the heaven (
Air) and the Earth (
Ground). And the Earth (Ground) was without form, (
Dust) and void; (
Empty) and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
The 3 elements necessary for all physical form are shown...
Air, Dust, and Water. Everything which is physical is composed of these 3 elements. The text is correct in showing that the water was not directly created, or spoken into being, because it consists of elements of the Air or Atmosphere. Water is Hydrogen and Oxygen and came from the Atmosphere and is not shown as a separate creation.
This is correct in today's scientific knowledge, but IF the Scriptures were written by Ancient men, Moses would not have known this. He would have written that in the beginning God created the Air, Dust, and Water, but since God Himself is the Author, He correctly shows that the Atmosphere and Ground were created, and the Water was not a separate creation but instead, came from the Atmosphere.
The actual formation of the firmament called Heaven started only on the second day (Gen 1:7) NOT Gen 1:1
My view was influenced by the Scriptural Fact that Scripture speaks of THREE Heavens.
The
first Heaven was in the midst of water and later
destroyed in a Flood.
The
second Heaven is our present world, w
hich is scheduled to be burned.
The
third Heaven is the object of the Creation, contains a single city with streets of gold and gates of pearl,
and it will never die (Rev.21).
Isa 65:17 For, behold, I create new heaven
S (
Plural) and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
The
first heaven was made the SECOND Day.
Genesis 1:6-8
The
second heaven was made the THIRD Day.
Genesis 2:4
The
third heaven was is also made on the THIRD Day.
Genesis 2:4
Do you see the Plurality of Shamayim in Genesis 2:4,
LITERALLY speaking?
God bless
