Cross-References
So God made the air and placed some of the water above the air and some below it.
God named the air "sky." Evening passed, and morning came. This was the second day.
Then God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered together so the dry land will appear." And it happened.
The earth produced plants with grain for seeds and trees that made fruits with seeds in them. Each seed grew its own kind of plant. God saw that all this was good.
Then God said, "Let there be lights in the sky to separate day from night. These lights will be used for signs, seasons, days, and years.
When you look up at the sky, you see the sun, moon, and stars, and everything in the sky. But don't bow down and worship them, because the Lord your God has made these things for all people everywhere.
I have not thought about worshiping the sun in its brightness nor admired the moon moving in glory
while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted with joy?
I look at your heavens, which you made with your fingers. I see the moon and stars, which you created.
The sun rises at one end of the sky and follows its path to the other end. Nothing hides from its heat.
