And the six are the six days during which God created the heavens, the Earth and whatever lies in between as we read in what the Honorable the Exalted God says, ‘We created the heavens and the Earth and all between them in Six Days.’ [806] And the seven refers to the seven firmaments which the Honorable the Exalted God says in the following verse, ‘And (have We not) built over you the seven firmaments.’ [807] And the eight refers to the eight who bear the Throne as we read in what the Honorable the Exalted God says, ‘…and eight will, that Day, bear the Throne of thy Lord above them.’ [808] And the nine refers to the miracles which were sent to Moses - the son of Imran.
