4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
COMMENTARY: Light: Not the sun which was created on the fourth day (v.16), but some fixed light source outside of the earth. The earth passed through a day-and-night cycle in reference to this light. Good: The word contains less an aesthetic judgment than a designation of purpose and correspondence to God's will, indicating the moral goodness of the Creation.
