Elementary Cosmology

Heck, if I become convinced of the science I'll gladly accept many more of Walton's propositions. But for now I'm going to sit back and enjoy Genesis 1 as the description of a very old materialistic creation.

Ex Nihilo

The Genesis 1 account, written in Hebrew, seems to be one of the more complex sections of Scripture. Considering, also, that it is the beginning of the Christian scripture, that seems to make a lot of sense that this would be the most dense and complicated text it all of the Bible.

Book Review: The Lost World of Adam and Eve
