The creation account was probably written on two tablets. [1]
It was signed [2] ▸ ± Ge 2:4,5 ¶ 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, 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. [3]
The end of the account is usually considered to be 2:4, which unnecessarily creates an apparent contradiction of two creation accounts.[4]
The poetic form of the section follows ABCDaabcdA. [5]
The division of verses after v5 is evidence based. The division after v4 is tradition passed from disbelieving Jews and is a Balaamism. [6]
The theme of the creation account comes from two phrases: God said... and it was good. 'God said' ten times paralleling the ten commandments for men. [7]
Each day except day 2 is called good. Day 6 is said to be good twice. [8]
