The great exchange

Language is powerful in Genesis. Already in v. 3 of chapter 1 God speaks and the acts of creation begin, bringing order from the tohu wa bohu of the primal waters. Their use of language continues, either in creation or in making remarks to other, associate Gods. They do not engage in conversation. We have only the words of God until the story of the second creation of man, in chapter 2.
