And there was evening, and there was morning— This phrase marks the completion of the fifth day of creation. The Hebrew words for "evening" (עֶרֶב, ereb) and "morning" (בֹּקֶר, boqer) are significant in understanding the Jewish reckoning of a day, which begins at sunset. This cyclical pattern of evening and morning emphasizes the order and rhythm established by God in creation. It reflects the divine orchestration of time, a gift from God that structures human life and activity. The repetition of this phrase throughout the creation account underscores the methodical and purposeful nature of God's creative work. the fifth day (1) the priority of marine animals and birds to land animals; (2) the existence of a period when the great sea monsters, with the smaller aquatic tribes and winged fowls of the air, were the sole living creatures on the globe; and (3) that, precisely as Elohim designed life has continued in unbroken succession since the time of its first introduction. It may also be noted that the Palaeontological history of the earth s crust suggests a number of considerations that enable us to form a conception of the fifth day's work, which, though not contravened by the Mosaic narrative, is yet by it not explicitly disclosed. For example, whereas it might seem to be the teaching of the inspired writer that the tanninim, the tomes, and the birds were created simultaneously, and so were synchronous in their appearance, the testimony of the rocks rather points to a series of creative acts in which successive species of living creatures were summoned into being, as the necessary conditions of existence were prepared for their reception, and indeed with emphasis asserts that the order of creation was not, as in ver. 21, first the great sea monsters, and then the creepers, and then the birds; but first the smaller aquatic tribes, and then the monsters of the deep, and finally the winged creatures of the air. This, however, is not to contradict, but to elucidate, the word of God. . . .
