When was Genesis Chapter 2 written?

A:The books of The Bible did not have chapters and verses until many centuries after it was written, so the change of chapters and even verses do not necessarily coincide with a change of passages or a change of authorship.

Genesis 2:4b-25 is attributed to an anonymous source now known as the Yahwist, who wrote around the ninth century BCE. The first few verses of chapter 2 (2:1-4a) follows on from chapter 1 and is attributed to the Priestly Source, writing during or shortly after the Babylonian Exile.
