The creation myth from the bible is theorized to come from mainly 2 different source texts that got spliced together with smatterings of a third text. Basically because they were just... directly ripped and recompiled, the days/orders in which things happen get a bit.... weird. Because each source material has a slightly different spin on events essentially. This is basically a consistent theme throughout most of the books, where the narrator/theme will shift, flip, or straight up contradict previous material.
If memory serves at least.
