... the face of Jesus, and say this: that His face shone like the sun, when in his strength it shines, alright?!

Next, on the fifth day it describes the creation of the birds and the fish, right?!

What is the correlation with fish and birds we can find here?

First, I will talk about birds. We have an important figure here, in Luke, chapter 3, verse 22.

I will read from verse 21: “When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened;

and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased”.

That voice that came for Jesus to hear, and for everyone around him to hear it too, I believe it spoke in Hebrew, alright?!

I cannot say it for sure, say that this is how it happened, but those people were Israelites.

And if observe the Hebrew, the word "beloved" used here has the same root as the word "beloved" that means "David".

The word “David” means “beloved”, so I believe that it is a link that God is making, like this: you are my son David, in whom I rejoice.

Because David is a figure of Christ, several prophecies in the Old Testament speak of “David” who would come to reign, to rule,

but that David who will reign forever is Christ.

Let's continue, fish... Luke 5, verse 4 to verse 7: “When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into deep water [go into the high sea], and let down the nets for a catch.

And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.

And when they had done this, they enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking.

They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink”.

This is a prophetic vision of the fishing that they would do later on, but not of fish, alright?! In Matthew 13... look at what Jesus points out in verse 47, which says:

"Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown into the sea [which are the nations], and gathered fish of every kind".

What are fish representing here? The people!

That wonderful fishing there, which they tried, and tried, by their own strength, but failed, in fact, after Jesus ministered the Word to them, they managed to fish abundantly.

What is this representing? Let us check what Jesus say, in Matthew, chapter 4, verse 19: "And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men".

There was no use trying to fish with their own strength, because they were not going to be able to fish.

That is why Jesus said: stay in Jerusalem until you have been clothed with power from on high. (Luke 24:49)

From then on, in Peter's first fishing, preaching the Word, almost 3,000 souls were saved, and then 5,000 souls, the nets were already filling up, right?!

Just a little boat for Peter to take care of [all these souls], was't enough. Then he calls his mate to help him to look after all these "fish".

Now on the sixth day: animals and humanity.

We see Christ here in the image of an animal: the lamb.

John see Jesus (in John, chapter 1, verses 29 and 36) and says thus: "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world".

Another animal that is featured here in Revelation 5:5 is the "Lion of the tribe of Judah".

First He [Jesus] comes like a little lamb, meek, suffers, is humble, gets beaten, but then He comes like a lion, no one messes with Him! Now He is the King, right?! Powerful…

But Jesus also comes as a man, we see that in Hebrews 2:17.

“The Word was made flesh”, which is written in John 1:14, here in Hebrews 2:17 says that He had to be like His brothers in every way,

and in Philippians it says that He being in the form of God, did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, instead He emptied Himself by assuming the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men... the form of a man.

He truly became the Son of Man, it's the Son of God as the Son of man.

So here is the representation of animals and humanity.

And finally, the Sabbath, the "Shabath" [Hebrew], the day of rest after God created all these things in 7 days, because it is written like this in several parts of the Bible,

God created everything in 7 days… This creation in 7 days is described from here [Genesis 1], alright?!

This is there in the Ten Commandments, for example, when God command the Israelites to observe the Sabbath, because in six days God created everything and on the seventh day He rested.

Jesus Christ says in Matthew 11:29… I will read this verse because it is wonderful!

Jesus says (I will read from verse 28): “Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened [you are working too hard], and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls”.

Jesus is our rest. Now it is interesting for us to realize that Jesus say in John 19:5: while I am in the world, I am the Light of the world.

And it is interesting that He turns to his disciples and says: you are the light of the world. Christ in us, right?!

In Matthew 4, from verse 13, is written: “And leaving Nazareth He went and lived in Capernaum by the sea, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali;

This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, along the sea road, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles!

The people who live in darkness have seen a great light, and for those living in the shadowland of death, light has dawned".

This is written in Isaiah, chapter 9, verses 1 and 2.

And to end this video I want to read Isaiah 8…

Isaiah 8:20: “o the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak [if the prophets do not speak] according to this word, it is because there is no light in them”.

To the Law and the testimony, right?! To the law and the testimony of the law, if someone does not speak according to this rule, it is because there is no light in them.

Who is the Light? Jesus, the Word of God, the Living Word, the Living Word of God, alright?!

God bless you! Just reminding for our brothers and sisters that this is not yet a study of the Genesis 1 explanation,

these are just some important topics for those who are studying deeply, but I will give a simple explanation of each chapter from now on, ok?!

May God bless you, may you have a day, a night, an afternoon, whenever you are watching, blessed in the Lord, alright?!

I'll leave you some time to take notes and may God bless you!
