A SCIENTIFICALLY SAVVY, THEOLOGICALLY ASTUTE, SCRIPTURALLY FAITHFUL INTERPRETATION OF GENESIS What did the writer of Genesis mean by �the first day�? Are the seven days a literal week or a series of time periods? If I believe that the earth is 4.5 billion years old, am I denying the authority of Scripture? With examples from history, a brief but thorough exploration of the major interpretations, and a look into the particular significance of the creation of human beings, Lennox suggests that Christians can heed modern scientific knowledge while staying faithful to the biblical narrative. He moves beyond a simple response to the controversy, insisting that Genesis teaches us far more about the God of Jesus Christ and about God�s intention for creation than it does about the age of the earth.
