Double Narrative of Creation in Genesis.
Professor J. w. Gibbs, of Yale Collere.
the distinguished or;eniai.t and scholar
has contributed TO The New Enrlander AN
article with The aboyeiille in which he shows
that the beginning OF Genesis contains two
accounts of the Creation; the one extending
to the third verse of chapter second. inclu.
sive; and the other to the end of chap,er
| third. lhe hrst section, according 10 this
division, has a visible unity, it being the
history of seven successive days. The second
section has also an unity of its own. The
beginning and end of il both refer 10 the
Garden of Eden. The second section has a
distinct superscrin..ca, Gen. 2: 4. Compare
similar superscriptions, Gen. s.: 90: l IL:
10 SO: i: but see also Gen. 10: 30, 81. 80.
SO: 80 Ps ~: 90. Sometimes we fnd
| double titles. See Gen Y. xxxvi. In the
first section the Deity is called Elohip. (Godl
tmrty.hye times, and by no other name. In
! the second section he is called JeAouah Flo
him Lord Cody nineteen times, and by no
otuer name, where the writer speaks in his
own person. There are three instances in
which the woman or serren, speaks, and
the Deity is called Elohini, Gen. /: 5.
The Professor judges that the writer Of
The hrst section had digss,ed plans before
! him, and he notes ryihmus aud uniformity
III the construction OF his sentences, contrast
ing with the more simple aud artle.s style
o. the second section. The writer of sec
ond, often iinds occasion to go back, in or.
der TO mention circumstances which he had
omitted IN their proper place. After mott
eng the formation of man, and being about
to place him in the Garden Of Eden, he
goes back to describe the planting and To-
cation Of that garden, chap. 2: 8 To- Man
is placed in Eden, aud the tempsstion is at
hand; the sacred penman goes back to uo.
ace the origin of the woman, rs she was 4
partner with him in the transgression. This
again leads the writer to describe the occ.,.
sion of her being created, chapter 2, Is IS.

created at the same time with woman, Gen.

These circumstances the Pfcfessor thinks
are capable of plausible solution. lie nj
