Literatura ng Ikalawang Templo sa Genesis 1:24: Allegorical Interpretation, The Midrash & On the Account

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֱלֹהִ֗ים תּוֹצֵ֨א הָאָ֜רֶץ נֶ֤פֶשׁ חַיָּה֙ לְמִינָ֔הּ בְּהֵמָ֥ה וָרֶ֛מֶשׂ וְחַֽיְתוֹ־אֶ֖רֶץ לְמִינָ֑הּ וַֽיְהִי־כֵֽן׃

At sinabi ng Diyos: “Maglabas ang lupa ng nilalang na may buhay ayon sa kanyang uri: mga hayop, at mga gumagapang, at mga hayop sa parang ayon sa kanyang uri.” At nagkagayon nga.

Allegorical Interpretation of Genesis

[11] The passions he likens to wild beasts and birds, because, savage and untamed as they are, they tear the soul to pieces, and because like winged things they light upon the understanding; for the assault of the passions is violent and irresistible. The addition of “further” to “formed” is by no means otiose. How do we see this? Because above also he mentions the forming of the wild beasts before the creation of man, as we see from these words referring to the sixth day: and He said, “Let the earth bring forth the living soul after its kind, four-footed animals and creeping things and wild beasts” (Gen. 1:24).

Allegorical Interpretation of Genesis

The word “moreover” (in the Greek version of Gen. 2:19) is taken by Philo to mean a second creation of senses and passions; and this further creation is accounted for by the observation that evils are numerous, and by the suggestion that Gen. 1:24 refers to genera, and Gen. 2:19 to species, a suggestion in support of which evidence is adduced. (11 f.)

The Midrash of Philo

Why the creation of animals and flying creatures is mentioned a second time, when the account of their creation had already been given in the history of the six days? (Genesis 2:19).
