Genesis 2:1

[Now the seventh day is separated from the other days as a special day. The text in verses 1–3 is well structured in Hebrew. A total of 35 (7 x 5) words are used in five lines. Centrally, there are three lines with seven words each, where the seventh day (Hebr. jom ha-shevii) appears in each line. The entire story ends brilliantly with three central words: create (Hebr. bara), God (Hebr. Elohim), and make (Hebr. asah; which includes divide, separate, and complete). This is what God has done throughout the creation story, and now everything is complete.]
Now the heavens and the earth were completed (finished) with all their host [with everything that the universe contains].
[The word host (Hebr. tsava) describes a large quantity. The word can be used for stars (Deuteronomy 4:19), angels (1 Kings 22:19), and soldiers in an army (Judg. 4:2). Since no angels are mentioned in creation (they are implied to already be created, see Job 38:6–7), the word here refers to everything created that fills the universe, from the smallest elementary particles to the largest galaxies.]
