MODULE 3: SESSION 14: Repeated Words in Genesis 1

Repeated words are a common literary device that authors use to structure their text and communicate their message. For a better understanding of the Bible we have to pay attention to which words are repeated, how many times they are repeated, and where they occur. For instance looking unto repetition of words in Genesis 1, the word God said was repeated 10 times, God had multiple things to create in day 3 and day 6, in day 1 and day 4 God dealt with all matters of light.
