In Isaiah 45:18, God completed the earth with the plan that he was going to place his children on to live in paradise for eternity. 2.

This was a spiritual creation of man. This could be interpreted at the "creation" of man in which the Bible refers to in Genesis 2:7. "Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being." (Genesis 2:7).
