How do the two accounts of creation in Genesis 1 & 2 differ in style and perspective (e.g., compare God’s involvement in each account: how does He go about the creation of mankind in each chapter that is different?)?
In Genesis one there is a repeating pattern of God speaking and creation happening then repeat. Where in Genesis chapter 2 the text is written as where God is not “speaking” anymore. He is just creating. Chapter one seems to be written more direct and chapter 2 is written more like painting, like God is just painting with a paintbrush.

God’s will for the people was to go out and be scattered amongst the earth. They wanted to build a giant city so that that would not happen. Their plan was also to build a tower that would extend all the way to the heavens to bring glory to themselves. God ruined there plans when He came down from heaven
