Tautology? (Genesis)

I'm starting to doubt where all these stories head to. Besides my previous thoughts about the bible being somewhat contradictive I begin to think it runs in circles. I must admit that as I read these last chapters I was somewhat distracted and couldn’t really catch the essence of the text. I’m not sure whether the cause of it is reading them without really focusing or if they are indeed a repetition of everything.

In my lack of understanding, I don’t feel there is much to blog about. I just wanted to bring up the fact that I’m beginning to spot tautological characteristics as the stories seemed to be stuck in one and only deprived ending. For example, I found the last line of Genesis 35 somewhat familiar.

“And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.” Genesis 35

Mmm Abraham? Maybe Noah? I don’t know if it might just be a coincidence or an uneducated sighting, I just wanted to emphasize on how boring repetitions can be.
