Helpful as always, thank you. A minor point: it is the word "head," not "river," in Genesis 2:10 which is the same root as "beginning" in Genesis 1:1.

Thanks for this. The difficulty arose from the fact that some translations render these two different words both as "river", whereas it is "headwaters" which shares the root, not the singular "river" which flowed into the garden.
