The first of these commences at the first verse of chapter first, and ends at the third verse of chapter second. The second account commences at the fourth verse of chapter second, and continues to the end of the chapter. In speaking of these contradictory accounts of the Creation, Dean Stanley says: "It is now clear to diligent students of the Bible, that the first and second chapters of Genesis contain two narratives of the Creation, side by side, differing from each other in most every particular of time and place and order."[5:2] Bishop Colenso, in his very learned work on the Pentateuch, speaking on this subject, says: "The following are the most noticeable points of difference between the two cosmogonies: "1. In the first, the earth emerges from the waters and is, therefore, _saturated with moisture_.[5:3] In the second, the 'whole face of the ground' _requires to be moistened_.[5:4] "2. In the first, the birds and the beasts are created _before man_.[6:1] In the second, man is created _before the birds and the beasts_.[6:2] "3. In the first, 'all fowls that fly' are made out of the _waters_.[6:3] In the second 'the fowls of the air' are made out of the _ground_.[6:4] "4. In the first, man is created in the image of God.[6:5] In the second, man is made of the dust of the ground, and merely animated with the breath of life; and it is only after his eating the forbidden fruit that 'the Lord God said, Behold, the man has become _as one of us_, to know good and evil.'[6:6] "5. In the first, man is made lord of the _whole earth_.[6:7] In the second, he is merely placed in the garden of Eden, 'to dress it and to keep it.'[6:8] "6. In the first, the man and the woman are _created together_, as the closing and completing work of the whole creation,--created also, as is evidently implied, in the same kind of way, to be the complement of one another, and, thus created, they are blessed _together_.[6:9] "In the second, the beasts and birds are created _between_ the man and the woman. First, the man is made of the dust of the ground; he is placed by _himself_ in the garden, charged with a solemn command, and threatened with a curse if he breaks it; _then the beasts and birds are made_, and the man gives names to them, and, lastly, after all this, _the woman is made out of one of his ribs_, but merely as a helpmate for the man.[6:10] "The fact is, that the _second_ account of the Creation,[6:11] together with the story of the Fall,[6:12] is manifestly composed by a _different writer_ altogether from him who wrote _the first_.[6:13]
