Irraooucrsoer—This chapter stands
as the frontispiece to the great his-
torical section cf the Old Testament,
which extends from Genesis to
Kings, and whica traces the story of
Israel from the earliest times to the
exile. It is not by accident that the
chapter occupies this position. It is
designed to show that God, who pre -
ides aver the fortunes of men and the
destiries of maims, also controls the
forces of nature. Since he made the•
material world, its resources are at his
disposal, to fa.fil his purpose with
men. Thus the aim of the chapter is
religious rather than scientific. It
comes from a pre -scientific age, and it
is obviously unfair to treat it as an
authority on questions raised by mod-
ern science. The point of paramount
importance is that God stands behind
the whole .movernent of the material
farces of the world, and expresses
himself in there.
I. Tea PRELIMS C. CREATION, VS. 1, 2.
V. 1, Nothing could be more im-
pressive than ,the simple statement
t. at the universe (which the Hebrews
called "the heavens and the earth")
mine into existence, not by blind
ehance, but by the deliberate purpose
and the creative activity of God. There
was a time, "in the leogiiming," when
God was, and the world was not. "Be-
hind creation is a Person," says Mc-
leadyen. That is the claim of reli-
gion, and faith helas stubbornly to
that eonviction.
V. 2. This verse is parenthesis,
describing the conditioe of the world
prior to creation. Chaos and desola-
tion prevailed. The earth was cover-
ed with a welter of raging waters, and
all was shrouded with darkness. The
eevereign power c: God is all the more
wonderful in that he quelled this con-
fusion and turned it into an orderly
ard 'productive world.

Light was the first creation. Beforo
there was light the ,Vorld was lifeless
and chaotic; without light there could
be no life and no order. In each in-
stance creation proceeds by God utter-
ing his word,. widen is immediately
fulfilled. His word is the expression
et his will; and his will is the one
powee. in all the universe which can-
aot be frustrated, but gets itself ful-
tiled. Just as an artist stands .aside
and looks at his finished. work, so God
surveas the first dawn of the world's
light. He pronounces it "good," that
is, foe the end it is to serve. A simi-
lar pronouncement is made after each
c.eation. Since it comes from God's
hands the world, with all its marvels
and 'beauties, is good. and should be
eo accepted. by :.en. Thus all pessim-
ism and denial:: is ruled out. The an -
ciente thought thet a thing did not
-really exist until it received its name.
Therefore God, as the Creator, right-
ly claimed the prerogative of bestow-
ing, the name upon the light and upon
all succeeding ceeations.

The creatioa of man is described
more fully time:. the preceding acts of
•creatior because he is the crowning
work of God, The human personality
is to be the greatest feature in the
aniverse; before him the sun and stars
pale ento inaignificaace. This being
so, God addresses the whole council of
heaven (see job 1: 6) and declares
his intention of creating him, saying,
"Let .is make man." Man's nature is
described in its God -ward aspect; he
is made in the image of God. What-
ever else this means, it refers at least
to a resemblance which man bears to
God. This implies e. capacity for God
which the brute creation does not
share. Further, the nature of man is
described as social, for God created
him male and. female. The instinct
which Ieade maa and woman together
to form the family is good, because it
has been ordeined and blessed by God.
Then also the purpose of man in the
world is shown He is to "replenish
