    Map 7 Days of Creation

    I have been wanting to create a series of Biblical maps illustrating the story and depth of what God has done and is doing on Earth. Where better to start than with the creation of Earth.

    Description:
    Day 1: God creates everything. Physical, spiritual, time, space, etc. The earth is just a sphere of water, hanging in empty space. Then He creates light to penetrate the dark, thus creating Day and Night.

    Day 2: God separates the upper water (the Pre-Flood water canopy) from the lower water (the oceans), creating the atmosphere in between.

    Day 3: God draws the lower waters apart and dry land appears. Then He creates plants, trees, and all vegetation.

    Day 4: God creates the Sun, Moon, and stars for light in the day and in the night, and to mark seasons and times.

    Day 5: God forms all the creatures in the sea and air.

    Day 6: God forms all land animals. Then He creates mankind in His image. He creates them male and female. Adam and Eve, the first man and woman.

    Day 7: God looks on His creation and sees that it is complete, and rests. Not that He needed the rest, He is setting a standard for humans to follow; work is good and rest is good. Plus, by rest, I think it means He wandered about the Earth and space observing all the wonderful things moving in true harmony.

    I have written a post on it. Read it here: 7 Days of Creation

    That's a really interesting illustration, gives me some antique kind of vibes.
    Creative use of visuals and symmetry to portray a concept. Kind of confused with what's going on with the sun on the right side though..

    Thank you. I was really trying for an old style map.

    The Sun is on the left and the moon is on the right. Sorry if it's not clear enough. I tried to make the Moon-side of the Earth darker than the Sun-side.
