Potential agreement List;

1: Adam understood language.
2: Without The Breath of YHVH, Adam would not exist as an individual growing personality.

Agreed?
What is noticeable about the style of The Garden Story is that it is presented in a bullet-point manner.
As such, if it were told verbatim around a campfire, it would be over in a matter of minutes, and leave the listener with more questions than it gives answers to.
That is what we have to work with.
It's a narrative. A quick narrative that doesn't answer every question, sure, but I don't think "bullet-point" is accurate.
Why be contrary?

What advantage to your own position does it make to think of the story as a "quick narrative that doesn't answer every question" than to see it in the style of bullet points?
