''Genesis 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed, and all their hosts. 2 By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.

This six-day (Hebrew ''yom'') Creation account, in which man is created ''after'' the animals (verses 26-27 above), is contradicted by the version reported in the rest of chapter 2, in which Creation aparently takes only one day (once again, Hebrew ''yom''), and man is created ''before'' the animals (verses 18-19). This fact would tend to back up the biblical scholars' 'two-origin' suggestion above.
