Appears 579 times in Scripture
“So God created the great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters teemed according to their kinds, and every winged bird after its kind. And God saw that it was good.”
“God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.”
“And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, to separate the waters from the waters.””
“So God made the expanse and separated the waters beneath it from the waters above. And it was so.”
“And God said, “Let the waters teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky.””
“Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.”
“And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered into one place, so that the dry land may appear.” And it was so.”
