Genesis 1, 2 and 3

 Genesis chapter one sounds well ordered and with a consistent productive theme; create everything and get it running.

Genesis chapter two sounds like it's the work of a mad scientist. Gold and gems are mentioned, which nude garden of Eden dwellers have no use for. Then God turns the garden into a death trap with a deadly tree as the center piece. Then God brings all the animals to Adam to see if he wants to have sex with them, but decides to create a woman. WOW, what happened? It sounds like a crazed maniac is at the controls. 

In chapter three God has put a very intelligent lying snake in there with them. The garden has all the elements of a disaster, welcome to the party. 

If it was a movie chapter one would have peaceful and maybe energetic music playing, but the music would quickly grow dark and intense in chapter two and by the time God got through in chapter three it would be horror music, complete with violins screeching wildly and glass shattering.
