| Beschreibung: | "Can Christianity and evolution coexist? Traditional Christian teaching presents Jesus as reversing the effects of the fall of Adam. However, an evolutionary view of beginnings doesn't allow for a historical Adam, making evolution seem incompatible with what Genesis and the apostle Paul say about him. For Christians who accept evolution and want to take the Bible seriously, this presents a tension that endangers faith. Peter Enns offers a way forward by explaining how this tension is caused not by the discoveries of science but by false expectations about the biblical texts. Focusing on key biblical passages in the discussion, Enns demonstrates that the author of Genesis and the apostle Paul wrote to ask and answer ancient questions for ancient people; the fact that they both speak of Adam does not determine whether Christians can accept evolution. This thought-provoking book reconciles the teachings of the Bible with the widely held evolutionary view of beginnings and will appeal to anyone interested in the Christianity-evolution debate, including college and seminary students in science and religion courses." -- Publisher description.

TABLE OF CONTENTS / INHALTSVERZEICHNIS

CRITICISM, AND BIBLICAL ARCHEOLOGY

PAUL S ADAM
ADAM TODAY : NINE THESES.
DIESES SCHRIFTSTUECK WURDE MASCHINELL ERZEUGT.
CAN
CHRISTIANITY AND
EVOLUTION
COEXIST?
THIS IS A
BOLD,
HONEST, AND DIRECT APPROACH TO THE QUESTIONS OF ORIGINS AND THE INTER
PRETATION
OF THE BIBLE.
PETE
HAS BATTLE
SCARS
FROM
THE JOURNEY TO HIS CONCLUSIONS IN
THE EVOLUTION OF ADAM,
BUT
THOSE
BATTLES HAVE MADE HIM INCREASINGLY SENSITIVE TO THE
PLIGHT
OF THE CHURCH S STRUGGLE
WITH
SCIENCE
AND THE BIBLE. HERE IS A THEOLOGICALLY
ALERT,
PASTORALLY SOUND, AND EXEGETICALLY INFORMED BOOK THAT
WILL
LEAD US ONWARD.

THE QUESTION OF THE HISTORICAL ADAM IS AN URGENT
ISSUE
IN BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION AND
THEOLOGY TODAY.
RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS IN BIOLOGY HAVE INDICATED
WITH
IMPRESSIVE
EVI
DENCE
THAT HUMANITY
DOES
NOT GO BACK TO A SINGLE HUMAN COUPLE.
DOES
THAT MEAN
THAT
THE BIBLE IS
WRONG
OR THAT
SCIENCE
IS WRONG? OR PERHAPS, AS
PETER
ENNS ARGUES, WE
HAVE
BEEN
MISREADING THE BIBLE. WHILE NOT EVERYONE,
INCLUDING
MYSELF,
AGREES
WITH
EVERYTHING
THAT ENNS
SUGGESTS,
HIS BOOK IS AN IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTION TO THE DISCUS
SION
CONCERNING
GENESIS
1
*2 AND
SCIENCE.

THE EVOLUTION OF
ADAM
NOT ONLY REFLECTS THE EVOLUTION OF EVANGELICAL UNDERSTANDINGS
OF
ADAM,
BUT IT
ALSO
CONTRIBUTES TO NEW PERSPECTIVES ON PAUL AND THE GOSPEL OF
JESUS
CHRIST.
NO ONE CONCERNED
WITH
THE BEAUTY,
GLORY,
AND
TRUTH
OF THE GOOD NEWS IN A
SCIENTIFIC
WORLD
WILL
WANT TO MISS OUT ON THIS LANDMARK BOOK!
*
AMOS
YONG,
REGENT
UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF
DIVINITY
THE EVOLUTION OF
ADAM
PROVIDES A SURE-FOOTED AND ENGAGING LOOK AT WHAT THE BIBLE
SAYS
*
AND
DOES
NOT SAY * ABOUT THE
FIRST
MAN.
PETER
ENNS, ONE OF AMERICA S MOST
IMPORTANT
OLD TESTAMENT SCHOLARS, PROVIDES A MASTERFUL AND
ACCESSIBLE
SURVEY OF
THE RELEVANT BIBLICAL SCHOLARSHIP
FROM
THE PAST COUPLE OF CENTURIES. ENNS COMBINES
A DEEP APPRECIATION OF THE CHRISTIAN
TRADITION
WITH
A COURAGEOUS WILLINGNESS TO GO
WHERE MOST EVANGELICALS FEAR TO TREAD.
I
HIGHLY
RECOMMEND THIS BOOK.
