Therefore, the first half of the creation week does not necessarily proceed along the lines which some insist. The only solution to this difficulty would be to interpret the text as saying that the Sun appeared on the fourth day, but that it had actually been created on the first and was therefore the source of the light which separated day and night. This is something which the adamantly literal interpreters refuse to do. In critiquing Hugh Ross for suggesting such an arrangement, Terry Mortenson of Answers in Genesis explicitly argues that the Sun, Moon, and Stars were not created until the fourth day, advancing his argument along several lines. 14 Likewise, other Answers in Genesis contributors insist upon the Sun’s actual creation on the fourth day,15 as do the…

too often did he seem to make the case for God. This would have been fine, however, in his case for God his portion of the debate may have been more efficient had he considered using stronger source than the one used. For example, when asked whether the nature laws function differently during the prehistoric age he provided a rather vague answer, something along the lines of “that’s just how it was back then”.

of the first book in the old testament, Genesis 1. Genesis 1 tells us that God created the heavens, the earth, plants, animals, and man in six days, and gives us a description of what he created on each day. There are almost as many questions that arise from this text as it gives answers. Questions such as, is there gaps in the story? What does it mean by “In the beginning”?

has attempted to answer since the beginning of our very existence. Stories and myths about our creation have been around for thousands of years, but two stories particularly stand out. The Bible’s Genesis, written by Moses around 1500 B.C., and Ovid’s Metamorphosis, written around 8 A.D., are the most famous accounts attempting to explain the creation of existence. Genesis and Metamorphosis share many similarities as well as many differences, making each story unique in its own way. To start,…

The book of Genesis is one which is located in the Torah within the Tanakh among four other books: Exodus, Leviticus, Number, and Deuteronomy. In accordance with the dominant Jewish view, one which prevailed in earlier times, and one particularly common among Orthodox Jews, the Pentateuch has Mosaic authorship. In the present day, this view is typically rejected as commentators have noted that several points in Genesis indicate that the narrator lived well after Moses. In regards to the…

It is not important for a Christian to possess a literal understanding of the genesis 1-3 account because reason through the notion of evolution offers the best explanation of the creation of the world and its inhabitants. The theory of evolution is heavily supported by valid data; has the power to predict the outcome of certain…

In Genesis, it is described how the Hebrew people believed God created the “heaven and the earth.” However, there is not one but two accounts of creation. These two accounts exemplify two unique questions that the Hebrew people sought an answer to; why did they exist and why was there death and suffering? Although both myths are classified as stories of creation, the two narratives target different aspects of the beginning of Earth, the heavens, and mankind. There are several aspects of…
