Popis: | The Opening of Genesis with its two distinct and different creation accounts is an obvious invitation to offer particular attention to the intertextual significance of this remarkable repetition. The theme of creation is repeated, and practically a connection is established; here in the form of a contextual and thematic interrelation between the two accounts. Both accounts have long traditions of participation in western ideas of origin and meaning: P (Genesis: 1,1— 2,4a) with its suggestive depiction of the creating God as One, absolute and other, sacred and sovereign; J (Genesis: 2,4b—3,25) by nour ishing the hope and fantasy of mankind with its captivating image of Eden, the garden a vigorous green, radiant with light and beauty, the place where God and man were close and confident. |
