 An Information Security Policy is a single top-level document, whereas an ISMS has several documents, each of which focuses on one area. 

To see how an Information Security Policy looks like, see the demo in this link: https://advisera.com/27001academy/documentation/information-security-policy/

Regarding which one comes first, the Information security policy is one of the first documents to write for ISMS, helping defining all other documents.
