Many books have been written on the Bible and evolution by scientists, but this volume is written by a biblical specialist. In this book, the author, a prominent Hebrew Bible scholar, examines the Bible in its ancient context and explores its meaning in light of emerging scientific evidence. Both the Bible and the fossil record raise significant questions about what it means to be human, and he expertly draws on both sources to grapple with who we are and where we came from. Written in uncomplicated language and featuring eleven spectacular color plates, the title creatively shows how science and faith intersect in questions about human origins.
