Item description for Genesis, Science & History: A Faith-Building Look at the Opening Chapters of Genesis by Douglas Jacoby...
Presented from a perspective of theistic evolution, this cross-disciplinary study of Genesis offers a less traditional approach to understanding creation that accommodates the coexistence of the Bible and science. Key historical, literary, and scientific themes are explored such as the age of the earth and the extent of Noah's flood. The idea that science helps foster an understanding of how God may have chosen to create is supported in discussions of the six days of creation, the Garden of Eden, and sexuality and marriage.

Reviews - What do customers think about Genesis, Science & History: A Faith-Building Look at the Opening Chapters of Genesis?
 | The subtitle is an accurate description of the book Dec 15, 2008 |
This book is an expository, faith-building examination of Genesis 1-11. It is well suited for someone with little or no previous exposure to the Bible-science debate. For someone already familiar with the issue, I would recommend other books, such as Keith Miller's "Perspectives on an Evolving Creation."
The author presents multiple viewpoints fairly and comes down in favor of the framework interpretation, theistic evolution and a local flood. | | |  | Yes Dec 14, 2004 |
This book by Doug Jacoby is really good. I don't know why the previous reviewer gave it a low rating and still enjoyed the book. At any rate, this book will inspire your faith. You will learn to approach and understand Genesis in a different light. Doug Jacoby is not dogmatic at all. He is open and presents his thoughts clearly. He even gives you his e-mail address if you have any suggestions. This book is a classic for understanding Genesis.

Dr. Douglas Jacoby is one of the best speakers and writers in the International Churches of Christ. The ICOC has been making many changes over the past few years and Jacoby is one of the leaders encouraging these changes. His writing style is graceful, biblical, and he differs where he has to with the standard interpretations.
This book is an updated version of THE GOD WHO DARED. The book explores the first eleven chapters of Genesis. Jacoby takes a theistic evolution approach to Genesis 1-2. While I differ with him over this issue, Jacoby is clear that he believes God created all things and by His Word they are held together (Hebrews 1:1-3). The book offers great insights into Genesis and will encourage you in your faith. | | | Write your own review about Genesis, Science & History: A Faith-Building Look at the Opening Chapters of Genesis
