The first chapter in Genesis, continuing through to Genesis 2:4a, is the version of creation believed to have been written by the Priestly Source during the Babylonian Exile. It contrasts with the second creation story, beginning in genesis 2:4b and attributed to the anonymous source now known as the Yahwist.
