Google is your friend.
Of course, you should read it.
But that's a double edged sword, because to truly 'read' it you'd have to learn Hebrew.
Also, the order doesn't matter, as the first section is 'foreshadowing' or a 'condensed explanation' as long as the result is the same.
Also, there is an accompanying book to Genesis called the book of Enoch. (also Job was the first book NOT Genesis.)
There is a backstory, even before the creation, you should read it.
- gort 17y agothe order doesn't matter, as the first section is 'foreshadowing' or a 'condensed explanation' How can a condensed explanation put things in a different order? The very least I expect of a condensed history is to get things in order.
- revoltingx 17y agoI'm sorry if the writers of thousands of years ago don't meet your expectations. Also, I'm not sure how you can call a paragraph(s) a story. Considering they're in the same chapter of the same book. (Actual chapters were added later, the chapter is genesis and the book is the old testament.) Complete non-sense.
- gort 17y agoI'm sorry if the writers of thousands of years ago don't meet your expectations. As if writing things in the wrong order made more sense thousands of years ago. they're in the same chapter of the same book So what? It's entirely possible that Genesis 1 and 2 were written by different people, and later placed together.
