NOTE: This week you will learn more in-depth about how to do the study steps so there are several tutorial videos for this week's assignment. As you go through the rest of the study, if you unsure how to do a certain step, come back to these tutorial videos to help guide you.

In the opening of Genesis, God creates the heavens and the earth, bringing forth light, separating day and night, and establishing the sky, land, and seas. God forms the sun, moon, and stars, fills the waters and skies with living creatures, and creates animals and humanity. Man and woman are made in God's image, blessed to be fruitful and have dominion over the earth. God designates the seventh day as a day of rest and sanctifies it. The narrative emphasizes the power and intentionality of God in creating the world and humanity, culminating in the goodness and rest of the seventh day.
