Abstract: Traditional, word-for-word translations of the Priestly Source's creation hymn have led to misrepresentations of the primary emphases of the text. An analysis of the event line as determined by the use of the waw conversive construction clears up the misconceptions and reveals some interesting problems in the Indo-European tradition of biblical translation.
