and all animals endued with life with which the waters swarm, 
according to their kinds ; and the birds of the air after their 
kind; and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, 
saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, 
and let the birds multiply on the earth. And there was evening 
and there was morning, a fifth Yom (Genesis i. 20 — 23). 
Sixth Yom. 
60. And God said, Let the earth bring forth all animals after 
their kind, domestic cattle, and reptiles and wild beasts after 
their kind ; and it was so. And God made the wild beasts of 
the earth after their kind, and domestic cattle after their kind, 
and all reptiles of the earth after their kind ; and God saw 
that it was good. And God* said. Let us make man in our 
image (= outline) after our likeness (= filling up the outline) ; 
and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and the 
birds of the air, and over the domestic cattle, and over all the 
earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the 
earth. So God called man into existence after His own image; 
male and female created He them. And there was evening and 
, o 
there was morning, a sixth Yom (Genesis i. 24 — 27). 
Seventh Yom. 
61. At the beginning of the seventh Yom God finished His 
work ; aud He rested then from all the work which He had 
done. And God sanctified the seventh Yom, because that in it 
He rested from the work which He intended to performf 
(Genesis ii. 2, 3). 
62. Before entering upon an investigation of the Mosaic 
record respecting Creation, I would adduce the testimony of a 
noted French writer in the present day as a fair specimen of the 
' :i As some critics, like Bishop Colenso, have assumed that because the 
name “ J ehovah ” is not found in the first chapter of Genesis, as it is in the 
second, therefore it is a proof that they must have been written by two dif- 
ferent hands. But this rather proves ignorance of the Hebrew language on 
the part of the critic. For when it is written “God said” ( yo-mer ) we 
understand Jehovah to be the speaker. If Moses, instead of writing “ God 
mid, let us make man, and God blessed the seventh day,” had written “ The 
Lord said, and the Lord blessed,” &c., the Jews would have understood that 
some one commissioned to speak and to bless had done so in the Lord’s name. 
And this is the reason why the word Lord or Jehovah is not found in the 
narrative of the Mosaic cosmogony. 
t The literal rendering of this last phrase is “ which God created to 
make.” So the Targum of Onkelos and the Syriac version render it. The 
Yulgate translates it, “ which God created that He might- make it.”
