Genesis 1:8
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

The second day is the only day God didn't call "good".

St. Jerome held that the reason why God did not pronounce the work of the second day "good" is to be found in the fact that there is something essentially evil in the number two, and this was echoed centuries afterward, afar off in Britain, by Bede.
