As an introduction to Genesis 1, it stands alone from the enumeration of days. It repeats the declaration of the invisible aleph and the first word of the verse: God is the creator. It's 'bookend' is Ge 2:4,5[1]. By this verse alone with it's repeating declaration that God is the creator, there can be no doubt that the primary purpose of creation is to make the invisible God known.
  1. Ge 2:4 ¶ These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, Ge 2:5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
