Actually ...this is not about a yearbook, nor is it about junior high school. But, it is about a book ...and a record of existence that many are trying to either conceal, or if not, to at least degrade.

The Book is the Bible ...and it records many events.

A yearbook records events of s school year ...but, I'm focusing at this time on only the six days recorded in the beginning of the Bible.

The absence of any mention of the angels in those six days seems as strange to me as it would be for that one junior high school group to be ignored in their yearbook.

How could grass and trees ...fowl and fish ...cattle and every creeping thing ...how can that all be mentioned, but not any mention of angels??

Of course, man and woman are mentioned ...but, how does grass, trees, fowl, fish, cattle, and creeping things stand to be mentioned??  But, even in a record written specifically for man and woman, wouldn't the angels seem to be at least as significant as the other creatures??

Unless they weren't created within the six days.

The Book of Job, Chapter 38, says that the angels sang at Creation ...at least, that is how I read it.  And the Creation account described in the first Chapter of Genesis tells us about our human habitation, not about what is outside of that.  So, I believe all of what I read in God's Word ...and sort of believe what I feel makes sense while reading it, whether it makes sense to others, or not.

It is not describing the angels habitation, or if you prefer, the angels previous habitation. There had to be water at some point before the six days, as the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters while everything else seemed to be without form and void.

And it seems to me that the fallen angels had completed their rebellion before this also. They wouldn't be the ones singing at Creation ...but, singing is a good way to express relief or a victory.  The serpent in the Garden of Eden had obviously attempted to regroup, and try another strategy ...now being confined to a new environment
