Working Hypothesis:

This work is to show how the 1611 King James Bible hears the Spirit of God tell of the days of the Creation, from everlasting to everlasting. James took some special pains for a uniform translation was made of the whole Bible, as consonant as can be to the original Hebrew and Greek. He wanted to see a Bible well translated in English because those which were allowed under Henry the eighth were corrupt and not answerable to the truth of the Original. So James had “appointed certain learned men, to the number of four and fifty, for the translation of the Bible,” who were the best biblical scholars and linguists of their day. “In the preface to their completed work it is further stated that ‘there were many chosen, that were greater in other men's eyes than in their own, and that sought the truth rather than their own praise. Again, they came or were thought to come to the work, learned, not to learn.’ Other men were sought out, according to James, ‘so that our said intended translation may have the help and furtherance of all our principal learned men within this our kingdom.’” †

“Although fifty-four men were nominated, only forty-seven were known to have taken part in the work of translation. The translators were organized into six groups, and met respectively at Westminster, Cambridge, and Oxford. Ten at Westminster were assigned Genesis through 2 Kings; seven had Romans through Jude. At Cambridge, eight worked on 1 Chronicles through Ecclesiastes, while seven others handled the Apocrypha. Oxford employed seven to translate Isaiah through Malachi; eight occupied themselves with the Gospels, Acts, and Revelation.” †

I believe that these men found the Spirit of the Word in the prophecy of scripture because of agenda and purpose. They were not translating to satisfy a personal need, rationalize a preconception or acquire monetary gain. They were looking for truth in the Word in the will of God. I think that it is natural and right for the Bible to be a work in three languages, the Hebrew, the Greek, and the Old English. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one {1Jo 5:7 & 1Jo 5:8}. And there was a superscription written on his cross, “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS,” written in letters of Greek, and Latin and Hebrew {Luk 23:38}. I believe this was a sign that in due time there are three that bear record of the world, the English, and the Hebrew, and the Greek: and these three agree in one, as written in the in the King James Bible.

Therefore, an exegesis of the KJV Bible from a grammatical and textual frame of reference cannot be done according to other translations by other people with other agendas for other reasons. God’s Word does not change but meaning can be influenced by a translator’s agenda. So although there are other good translations of the Bible, they are incompatible with issues and will invalidate conclusions when used for verification.


The story of the six day from everlasting, unto the seventh day of Creation {Gen 1:31-Gen 2:3}, is the reason for and core purpose for the Word of God in the King James Bible. With a modern approach to the prophecy of old, the story of these days can be found written for the generation of Jesus Christ in the 21st Century, and beyond. The story is threaded with strings of text woven into the entire volume of the King James Version of the Holy Bible. It can be found in a number of ways. There are “stringlets;” strings of text from various passages devoted primarily to the revelation of days. And singlets, short scripts woven into various stories with bits of information to reveal the seven days of the gospel of Christ.

A Progression of Days

The first day: From the darkness of everlasting, unto the first morning light and the book of the generations of Adam. Adam died and the LORD promised the covenant of God to Noah.

The second day: The generations of Noah saved in the ark, the flood of waters and the firmament was called heaven.

The third day: The flood abated, the dry land was called earth and the generations of the sons of Noah were given the covenant of God.

The fourth day: To day and the generations of Jesus Christ crucified on the cross; rose from the grave and went to heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father.

The fifth day: A day as a thousand years.

The sixth day: A thousand years as a day.

The seventh day: There should be time no more.

Sure jwalsh it was a pleasure. I have more.

The first three days of the seven in the
Creation occur spiritually, in God. But that is for later. This may interest you though. The following gives how God may have related steps taken to set this Universe into motion.

e. God begins the fourth day of the Creation by making our Universe come into being. “Gravity has yet to be included in a theory of everything”7 because gravity does not fit well with the other fundamental forces of nature, and there are indications that gravity may have gotten special treatment when God brought our reality into existence.

For example in Genesis 1:14, Scripture can be understood to relate that God would have lights dividing two functions with four fundamental forces, “let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night (Gen 1:4); and let them be for {1} signs, and for {2} seasons, and for {3} days, and {4} years" The ultimate goal for these lights is defined in Genesis 1:15, “to give light upon the earth”.

He let the prototype have two lights, with each having a function divided out for them. But when He made the prototype He made room for an extra light by also making the stars (could this be gravity?), “God made two great lights, (1) the greater light to rule the day, and (2) the lesser light to rule the night;” and “he made (3) the stars also”. In Genesis 1:17, when He sets them into the firmament of the heaven He does it “to give light upon the earth”, but the appendage (the stars) is now removed. Therefore the end product is completed having two lights and four fundamental forces, as described in Genesis 1:18, “to rule {1} over the day and {2} over the night, and to divide {3} the light from {4} the darkness.” Therefore our reality is made and functions properly with gravity included, as configured according to the specifications of the world in which we live.


Whether it is determined, “the stars also”, represent the taming of gravity or if some other scenario ensued to accomplish the requirement, it can be said that God may have taken special measures to defeat this fundamental force and related it in His Word through the prophets of old.

Now gravity is reserved unto the flat line of eternity, when it may then be enjoined through faith in grace unto righteousness for the glory of God.Amen.
