Taking into account a vast array of scholarship, Blocher provides a detailed study of creation week, the image of God, the significance of gender, the garden covenant, the Fall and more., "Curiosity about our beginning continues to haunt the human race. It will not call off the Quest for its origins." The opening chapters of Genesis -- important at any time -- have been the focal point of controversy for more than a century. Few topics have been so hotly debated by theologians, philosophers and scientists alike.

    Fiver star seller: brand new, exactly as described, safely packed (no bumps, bends or dings.) Six days seems a bit long for delivery, but the USPS is doing their best. Perfect! Thank you.
