But for most moderns, taking it at face value is incongruous. And even for many thinking Christians today who want to take seriously the authority of Scripture, insisting on a literal understanding of Genesis 2-3 looks painfully like a tear here strip between faith and science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow can Christians of good faith move forward? Who were the historical Adam and Eve? What if we've been reading Genesis--and its claims regarding material origins--wrong? In what cultural context was this couple, this garden, this tree, this serpent portrayed?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing his groundbreaking \u003cem\u003eLost World of Genesis One\u003c\/em\u003e, John Walton explores the ancient Near Eastern context of Genesis 2-3, creating space for a faithful reading of Scripture along with full engagement with science for a new way forward in the human origins debate. As a bonus, an illuminating excursus by N. T. Wright places Adam in the implied narrative of Paul's theology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003eThe Lost World of Adam and Eve\u003c\/em\u003e will be required reading for anyone seeking to understand this foundational text historically and theologically, and wondering how to view it alongside contemporary understandings of human origins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-560424\"\u003eJohn H.
