How many stories of Creation are there in Parshat Breishit, one or two? Although this question is more often discussed by Bible critics than yeshiva students, its contains a significant spiritual message. This week's shiur discusses the structure of Parshat Breishit, in an attempt to better understand the meaning of the Torah's presentation of the story of Creation, and to 'set the stage' for our discussion of the overall theme of Sefer Breishit in the shiurim to follow.
