Original Russian text by Fr. P. Vozdvizhensky Translation by Tatiana Marr Adaptation by Nancy Mirolovich Illustrations by Gabriela Moustardas
“In His goodness, God created all we cherish in this world. He created everything out of nothing, all within six days. By His Word alone He formed the earth, the heavenly bodies, and everything that is on the earth. Our good and loving God made everything, and, as our loving Father, He cares constantly for everything and everyone. He gives to all men and creatures their food and tends to every need.” —“The Old Testament: The Creation of the World”
