Ernest Lucas is een auteur die zich verdiept in de fascinerende kruising van wetenschap en theologie. Zijn werk onderzoekt diepgaand hoe modern wetenschappelijk inzicht onze perceptie van geloof en spirituele zaken beïnvloedt. Gevormd door zowel wetenschappelijk onderzoek als theologische studie, biedt Lucas een uniek perspectief dat lezers uitnodigt tot een boeiende contemplatie van de ingewikkelde relatie tussen rationele zoektocht en transcendente waarheden. Zijn literaire reis belichaamt een voortdurende zoektocht naar wijsheid over diverse velden heen.
"Introducing students to the Book of Daniel in the Old Testament, Ernest Lucas examines the book's structure and characteristics. He covers the latest in biblical scholarship, including historical and interpretive issues, and considers a range of scholarly approaches. In particular, the guide focuses on illuminating the book's relationship to both the tradition of Hebrew prophecy and the later development of Jewish apocalyptic literature"--

This book is about Genesis and how far scientific discoveries can help us to understand it. Many of us are confused about what Genesis tells us, and how (and why) to approach its ancient story of the origin of the world and mankind. We are usually equally confused about what Genesis is, and what it can and cannot tell us. If we are willing to look for truth and consider other ways of seeing the world, we can emerge from the fog. This book gives a fresh and important approach to some of the deep down questions which trouble us most about where we can from, and why we are here.
In this commentary Ernest Lucas takes a unique 'cluster' approach to the book of Proverbs, studying it thematically and showing how it speaks to such issues as character formation, gender relations, wealth and poverty, interpersonal communication, science and religion, and care for the environment.
