Reading Genesis Well
What does it mean to be a good reader of Genesis 1-11? What does it mean to
take these ancient stories seriously and how does that relate to taking them
literally? Can we even take any of this material seriously?
Reading Genesis Well answers these questions and more, promoting a responsible
conversation about how science and biblical faith relate by developing a
rigorous approach to interpreting the Bible, especially those texts that come
into play in science and faith discussions. This unique approach connects the
ancient writings of Genesis 1-11 with modern science in an honest and informed
way.
Old Testament scholar C. John Collins appropriates literary and linguistic
insights from C. S. Lewis and builds on them using ideas from modern
linguistics, such as lexical semantics, discourse analysis, and
sociolinguistics. This study helps readers to evaluate to what extent it is
proper to say that the Bible writers held a primitive" picture of the world, " and what function their portrayal of the world and its contents had in shaping
the community.
