ABSTRACT
Having recounted in the before quoted words of this divinely inspired paragraph the formation of the oceans and the appearance of the dry land, Moses now continues the account with these words:
“And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, wherein is the seed thereof upon the earth, and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed, after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after their kind, and God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning, a third day.”
