Hungarian Summary:
Mit értett Mózes első könyvének szerzője az „első napon”? Vajon a hét nap egy tényleges hetet jelent-e, vagy hosszabb időszakok sorára utal? John Lennox, az Oxfordi Egyetem matematikaprofesszora a történelemből vett példák ismertetésével, a fő értelmezések rövid, ám alapos áttekintésével és az ember teremtése különösen fontos kérdésének vizsgálatával amellett érvel, hogy a keresztényeknek nem kell elutasítaniuk a modern tudományos ismereteket ahhoz, hogy hűségesek maradjanak a bibliai történethez.
English Summary:
What did the writer of Genesis mean by “the first day”? Is it 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?In response to the continuing controversy over the interpretation of the creation narrative in Genesis, John Lennox proposes a succinct method of reading and interpreting the first chapters of Genesis without discounting either science or 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. With this book, Lennox offers a careful yet accessible introduction to a scientifically-savvy, theologically-astute, and Scripturally faithful interpretation of Genesis.
