Literature and How to Love and Date Genesis - (Views of Creation, Part 2) - Episode 015
Exploring two views of creation: the analogical view (the days of creation are analogically similar to the workweek of the Israelite, but the days are not necessarily 24-hour days) and the literary view (Genesis 1 is literarily designed to give us theological truth). Both of these views ask the question, “What is Genesis 1 supposed to teach us?” The episode concludes with the question of how to date Genesis--are there enough literary clues in the text to help us figure that out? (Stay tuned for further episodes exploring this question!)
