Plato draws a comparison between his theory and the Bible.

> And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.”
>So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.
>God called the vault “sky.”
>And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

>Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

>So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
