Berean Standard Bible
“God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.”
Genesis 1 opens the Bible with God shaping an unformed world in a series of creative days. On the first day God separates light from darkness, and then he names them, which in the ancient world marked his authority over what he had made.
