Yes, I do. Chapter 1 is from book J, written in Judah around the 9th century BC. Chapter 2 is from book E, written by a priest from Shiloh (in Israel) around the same time. Neither was written as history in the first place.

Interesting that someone said no time. What do they think time is? Time is sequence of events not the measurement of those sequences. God can not live outside of sequence or he is frozen and can not do anything or make any new decisions or have any new thoughts. He can not do any thing before or after anything else. Get your facts straight. Someone gave you those ideas that God lives outside of time but it was someone who never thought it through.
In answers to the question there are not two different stories of creation just two aspects to the same story. The original is Sumerian and there is a pictograph of it call the Adam and Eve seal found in Mesopotamia.

There are no other Biblical account. Chapter 1 is about the creation week. Elohim was used as name of God.
In chapter 2 we zoomed in to the details of the sixth day. Yahweh, a name of covenant was used.
If OT was erroneous Jesus would have corrected it. But Christ gave His approval of the first five books as Moses'.
Jesus always quoted the Torah.

Yes, and in the first creation God fills the earth with males and females.No incest.God filled the earth long before he planted a garden and made Adam the earth was full males and females ,when Cain gets kicked out of the garden God puts a protective mark on Cain so no man will harm Him.Cain
finds his wife in Nod where they build a entire city ,of course requiring help of the other people there.

Yes I did, but really they are not different. Genesis 2 just gives a more in depth look at the creation of man, where Genesis 1 gives an in depth look at the creation of everything

No. Same creation accounts. Chapter one is in order, chapter 2 is not. It simply refers back to the creation, but not in sequence, and adds some details. Nice try, though.

Yes, Genesis 1 and 2 w/Adam, Eve and the Garden...
Then again in Chapter 5-8 with Noah.
Why do you ask?

I didn't know Genesis contained stories.
Do the two creation passages contradict one another? Or are they describing one creation from different viewpoints?
Answer: If you expect enlightenment on bible passages, don't forget to mention the verses.

Most folks in this forum know that. IMO that is what happens wihen different people plagiarize from more ancient texts then contribute their work as something original.
