“1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 1:2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

1:3 God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 1:4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness. 1:5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” There was evening and there was morning, one day.

1:6 God said, “Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.” 1:7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so. 1:8 God called the expanse “sky.” There was evening and there was morning, a second day.”

-- Genesis 1:1 to 1:8

    It might be helpful to the person who was upset about no illustrations, links, etc, that you need to look in the very back of the book. Unfortunately, however, when you scroll to the end of the Bible chapters, it simply says "Setup and Navigation". But go to that page and THEN page forward and you'll see your links, illustrations, etc. Hope this helps!!
