Bible “contradiction” - Genesis chapters 1 and 2

8/4/2020

 
Genesis chapter 1 account of creation is different to chapter 2

The alleged contradictions between chapters 1 and 2 in the book of Genesis are:

Chp1 v11 has grass, plants and trees made on day 3
Chp2 v8 has grass, plants and trees made after man on day 6
Chp1 v20 has birds made out of water on day 5
Chp2 v19 has birds made out of the ground on day 6
Chp1 v24 has animals made before man on day 6
Chp2 v19 has animals made after man on day 6
There is no contradiction in the Bible. The above can be easily explained as follows:
Day 3 God made some grass, plants and trees (chp1)
On day 6 after creating man (Adam), God made some more grass, plants and trees in the garden of Eden (chp2)
On day 5 God made some birds out of the water (chp 1).
On day 6 after creating man (Adam), God made some more birds but this time out of the ground (chp 2)
On day 6 God made animals before man (chp 1)
But after creating man (Adam), God planted the garden of Eden and created some more animals (chp 2)

​As you can see, this is NOT a contradiction.
