An account of the creation of the oceans and tidal phenomena* On the morning of the third day, God said, “let luminaries be in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and night. Let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years. And let them light up the expanse of the heavens and earth.” And it was so: God made the two great luminaries: the sun to rule the day, and the moon and the stars to rule the night. God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to light the earth, to rule over the day and night; and to divide between the light and the darkness. He saw that it was good. Then it was evening. On the morning of the fourth day God said, “let the waters swarm with swarmers having a soul of life; and let the birds fly over the earth, on the face of the expanse of the heavens.”  And it was so: He created the great sea animals, and all that creep, having a living soul. These swarmed the waters, according to its kind; and every bird with wing according to its kind. And He saw that it was good. Then God blessed them, saying, “be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas; and let the birds multiply on earth.” Attributed to Moses, The Bible  * assuming Moses meant “signs” to include ocean tidal phenomena - and why not?
