Patterns: Who Wrote Genesis: Section 01 – Genesis One

“Now, the phrase “@ëlleh thôlëdôth” occurring only five times and only in Genesis begs the question of why its usage was so limited, but I’ll address why I think this happened in another post given the wording. in the Masoretic.” (From “On the Generations Of: A Pattern of Usage”)

In Who Wrote Genesis: Introduction, I discussed the overall structural divisions I see in Genesis based on the hypothesis that the phrase “@ëlleh thôlëdôth” identifies the individual writings Moses used to compile the book of Genesis at the direction of the Holy Spirit. These writings set the context for Moses’ own story as well as record the earliest chapters of the Story of the Line of the Promise.

This first section looks at Genesis One (1:1 to 2:4a), “These [are] the proceedings of the heavens and the earth.”  This is the story of how YHWH @Élöhîm re-formed the earth and re-filled it with life after it had become a wasteland and empty of life.  My analysis finds this is an oral story written down verbatim. The signature statement does not give a human author because likely the story has no human author, only a human transcriber.

So, here’s the first part of the essay I wrote discussing my research and Badgerholt inkpotconclusions.

Grace and peace to you,
