Many exegetes believe that the Genesis narrative is a composite of two different stories that were combined into the final canonical form of Genesis 6—9. Some scholars call these the Jahwist (JHWH) source and the Priestly (Elohim) source. Some notable difficulties between the two sources include: two different reasons are given for why the flood happens, Noah is given two different instructions about what animals and birds to take on board the ark, there are two different time frames given for how long the flood lasts, there are different explanations of the "nature of the flood waters", different circumstances by which Noah and the animals leave the ark, and two different "divine names" (elohim and Yahweh) are used.

The Lord works in mysterious ways

The Bible says that the water was gathered into one place, this does not logically necessitate that all of the land was gathered into one place.You could have a big lake with two islands in it and all the water would be gathered into one place while the land was not.We've been over this before, I even drew you a picture.ABE:Here is the picture that I personally drew for you: I uploaded it 5 years ago...Notice how the water is all in one pace and the land is not.Edited by Cat Sci, : see ABE
