The first distinct section of the Hebrew Bible, Genesis 1:1 to 2:3, describes God's creation of Heaven and Earth, following a two-verse introduction describing a mighty wind blowing in dark emptiness over formless and timeless water*. Six days of creation are followed by a seventh day of rest corresponding to the Biblical "sabbath" (related, perhaps coincidentally[1] to Hebrew שבע sheva' "seven"). Each of the six days of creation begins with God speaking.
