The Third Day of the Creation of GOD

9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

Brief Comments

GOD gathered the waters under the firmament into one place. This was done to the point where the dry land began to appear. This would mean the mountains, hills, and the lower parts and valleys. The dry land was named earth, the waters were called seas; it was good. From there GOD commanded grass, herbs, fruit trees, and vegetables to grow with their seed within them. Everything was obedient and this was the third day, evening and morning.
