Genesis 1:1-8
Bersiyong King James1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
6And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7And 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.
8And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

Genesis 1:9-16
Bersiyong King James9And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

11And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14And 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:
15And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16And 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.

Genesis 1:17-24
Bersiyong King James17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
20And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
22And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

“And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon…” Hindi palamuti ang paulit-ulit na hatol na “mabuti.” Binibigyan nito ng moral at teolohikal na bigat ang materyal na mundong nilikha ng Diyos.
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea…” Hindi mauunawaan ang utos sa pandiwa lamang. Ang tumatanggap, layunin, at lugar nito sa mas malaking tipan o pangangatwiran ang nagtatakda ng pananagutan.
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” Nagbibigay ang linyang ito ng dahilan, bunga, o konklusyon. Dapat itong manatiling kaugnay ng pahayag o kilos na nagbibigay rito ng kahulugan.
Genesis 1:25-31
Bersiyong King James25And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28And 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 moveth upon the earth.
29And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Unahin ang teksto
Kung saan nagkakaiba ang mga mambabasa
Nagsisimula ang buod sa sinasabi ng sipi at sa ugnayan ng mga bahagi nito. Hindi nito ipinapalagay na nalutas na ng isang denominasyon ang lahat ng tanong. Malinaw na tinutukoy kung ang konklusyon ay nakasalalay sa tradisyon, teoryang pampanitikan, o rekonstruksiyong pangkasaysayan.
Unang inihaharap ang tekstong KJV. Nilalagyan ng malinaw na pangalan ang mga interpretasyon, at ipinapakita lamang ang mga pagkakaiba kapag nakatutulong ang mga ito upang maunawaan kung bakit hindi palaging iisa ang sagot ng mga seryosong komunidad.
Paano dapat unawain ang mga araw ng paglikha?
Iba-iba ang pagbasa ng mga Kristiyano sa mga araw, kabilang ang karaniwang magkakasunod na araw, isang balangkas na pampanitikan, at mas mahahabang panahon. Bahagi ng usapan ang paulit-ulit na gabi at umaga, ang ikapitong araw, at ang kaugnayan sa Sabbath. Kailangang ipaliwanag ng bawat responsableng pagbasa ang mismong ayos ng kabanata, hindi lamang ipilit dito ang isang makabagong posisyon.
Genesis 1:1-31 · Genesis 2:1-3 · Exodus 20:8-11
Bakit magkaiba ang pokus ng Genesis 1 at 2?
Tinitingnan ng Genesis 1 ang maayos na paglikha ng buong mundo, samantalang nakatuon ang Genesis 2 sa hardin, gawain ng tao, utos, at pagsasama. Binabasa ito ng ilan bilang magkatugmang pananaw; pinag-aaralan naman ng iba ang magkakaibang tradisyong pinagsama sa huling anyo ng teksto. Dapat kilalanin ang pagkakaiba ng pokus nang hindi agad ipinapalagay na pinatutunayan nito ang isang kontradiksiyon.
