Because Moses wrote this book, it is possible he is referring to the tenth month of the Hebrew calendar, but this is uncertain. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-hebrewmonths and rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-ordinal)

"On the first day of the tenth month"

appeared

This can be made more explicit: "appeared above the surface of the water." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
