Each day that God worked in Creation in Genesis chapter one concludes with the words, "And the evening and the morning were the [1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th] day."
Day as we know it, begins with the morning and ends with the evening. Why does the evening come before the morning at the end of each of the six days that God worked in Creation in Genesis chapter one? Could it be that God created evening (the end of day) before morning (the beginning of day) because He is unique in that He is the only being in existence who has no beginning?
This would explain why, with Him, the end comes before the beginning? When the end comes before the beginning… mathematically, the end has no beginning. The beginning has no end. And the middle has no beginning and no end because they are all transcendent.
(No beginning)An end/A beginning (No end)
Does that make any sense? Can anyone help me with this puzzling question of why the evening (or the end of day) comes before the morning (or the beginning of day) at the end of each of the six days that God worked in Creation in Genesis chapter one?
