Ge 1:3 ¶ Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.
We see then God acting sovereignly to begin the process of the creation’s restoration – bringing light where there was only darkness and making a division between the two. This is entirely God’s work as the ruined creation is completely unable to help itself.
The total restoration of the creation takes another five days – followed by a day of rest. Setting the pattern that must be followed.
