Essay Quiz





1

Compare the accounts of creation in Genesis 1 and 2. What are some of the most significant differences in the two versions?
2

It would be great if Box 4.1 could be reproduced, such that the regular and bold-faced type could appear as students moved their cursors over the text. (The text uses Friedman's translation, but there is no reason why one in the public domain (e.g., the Revised Standard Version) wouldn't work.)
