Just because the Genesis flood is a reflection of the original creation, does not mean that the original creation was a reflection of a prior creation.
I wouldn't say it is a reflection of either but what is interesting is the first creation (Genesis 1:1, Genesis 2:4 through Genesis 4 : (1-26) has a constant theme through out it. It is the breath of life. The first creation is the breath of life creation. The second creation, the re-creation (Genesis 1:2 through Genesis 2:3, and Genesis 5 : (1-32) )has a constant them through out it of being after His kind. It is the His kind creation. If you look at
Genesis 7: (13-14) In the
selfsame day entered
Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; 14
They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle
after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth
after his kind, and every fowl
after his kind, every bird of every sort.
You will see that on the same day the ones from the His kind creation enters the ark. The second creation enters the ark all on the same day.
Now if you look at Genesis 7:15 And
they went in
unto Noah into the ark, t
wo and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.
Now the the ones from the first creation enters the ark on a different day than the ones from the second creation. The breath of life creation entered the ark on a different day. This is a consistent theme throughout the flood. Both of the creations are kept separate.
As a matter of fact the first creation (The breath of life creation.), the creation with fallen Adam is the reason for the flood.
Genesis 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy
all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die. 18 But
with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
The convenant in verse 17 was made with the His kind creation. The 7 day creation, the recreation. This is the creation from 11000 years ago.
This separation of creations throughout the flood is no coincidence.
