compares and contrasts the two understandings of humanity in Genesis 1 and 2.  Draws on scholarly study but also applicable to literalists.
Ge 1: a democratic protest against the claim of the king of Babylon to be the image of God.  We are all equal, and equally over nature.
Ge 2: We are under nature, or alongside.  The servants and protectors of God's garden.
