Pearl of Great Price Moses 3:5
"And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew."
Old Testament Genesis 2:5
"And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew"

Shared words: And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew

A shared frame carrying a Moses insertion. Both open the second creation account with 'every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew'; into that frame Moses 3:5 inserts the spiritual-before-natural doctrine ('I, the Lord God, created all things … spiritually, before they were naturally upon the face of the earth … for in heaven created I them'), which Genesis 2:5 does not carry. Both then continue with the un-rained earth and no man to till the ground. The inserted doctrine is a textual fact of the Moses rendering, not scored.
