The Abraham creation

This version would seem to confirm the concept that the first six days were design and that the actual forming of the plants and creatures and man took place after the day of rest as previously designed.

The unique element in the Abraham version is the plural nature of the gods. I can’t decide how much that is because Abraham was teaching Egyptians who believed in a multitude of gods and he was suggesting a cucerit where the deities were cooperative rather than antagonistic or competitive with each other.
