Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines a significant discrepancy between the account of the world's creation as detailed in the first two chapters of Genesis and the scientific record inscribed in the natural world itself. The author divides their matter into nine brief chapters. The first focuses on the purpose of the Pentateuchal Scriptures and the extent to which the writer should be accepted as an authority on cosmogony. They proceed to address limitations imposed upon the writer due to the intellectual conditions of their age and to review the two chapters of Genesis that are the subject of the inquiry. They then prepare the reader for certain difficulties that may arise in their path. In subsequent chapters, they start with the assumption that the day of Moses is susceptible of its literal and natural signification, and show how this is possible consistently with the just and reasonable requirements of Science. The author also explores the theory which makes the day a figure of notation for an indefinite number of years, before opening up a new creation which leaves ample room for every syllable and letter that Moses has written, and every fossil and footprint which Geology has discovered. The insights of this text leave ample space for each perspective, offering readers an opportunity to reconcile faith and reason concerning the world's creation.
