How did we know about the finest details of creation, if no one was there to witness it. The first chapter in Genesis and part of the second chapter (verses 1:1-2:4a, the first sentence in 2:4) form a completely different creation story from that in Genesis 2:4b-20. At first, the Book of Genesis did commence with the second sentence in verse 2:4, but an anonymous source now known as the priestly source added verses 1:1-2:4a during the Babylonian Exile. The Priestly source was inspired by a creation story found in Babylon during the Exile.
