Description

What did the author of Genesis mean by “the primary day”? Is it a literal week or a series of time periods? If I imagine that the earth is 4.5 billion years old, am I denying the authority of Scripture?In accordance with the continuing controversy over the translation of the creation narrative in Genesis, John Lennox proposes a succinct method of reading and interpreting the primary chapters of Genesis without discounting either science or Scripture. With examples from history, a brief but thorough exploration of the major interpretations, and a look into the specific significance of the creation of human beings, Lennox suggests that Christians can heed up to date scientific knowledge whilst staying faithful to the biblical narrative. He moves beyond a simple response to the controversy, insisting that Genesis teaches us way more in regards to the God of Jesus Christ and about God’s intention for creation than it does in regards to the age of the earth. With this book, Lennox offers a careful yet accessible introduction to a scientifically-savvy, theologically-astute, and Scripturally faithful interpretation of Genesis.
