The Completed Creation
Genesis 2:1
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.


I. THE CREATION WAS A GRADUAL PROCESS. The reasons might be —

(1) To show that God's works were not the offspring of hasty impulse, but planned from everlasting, and executed with minute and lingering care;

(2) To discover the variety of methods which a God infinitely rich in resources can employ in effecting His great purposes.

II. THE CREATIVE PROCESS AT LAST CAME TO A POINT IN MAN.

(G. Gilfillan.)
