The setting

The seventh-day coda to the six days of creation. This verse carries the tail end of the Codex-Alexandrinus damage that already required Swete to restore Genesis 1:29-31 in square brackets; the same lacuna runs on, unbroken, through this verse and the next two, so those restorations are reproduced here exactly as printed, including one bracket that closes mid-word after only the first letter of the next verse's καί.
