whatever
Sometimes I use the word, "said". Sometimes I use the word "spoke". Sometimes I use the word "talked". Hey, look, I'm three different writers. I also don't always use the same phrases in my compositions, so now I'm at least four different authors.
Besides, if anyone actually took the time to read first 11 chapters of Genesis, one would find a post-script to each section, indicating possible authorship. The operative word is "possible". One cannot go back in time a prove origin.
Genesis 5:1 "This is the written account of Adam???s family line"
Genesis 6:9 "This is the account of Noah and his family"
