Christian Interpretations of Genesis 1 (Christian Answers to Hard Questions)

Scholar of science and theology, Vern Poythress, examines which of the contemporary interpretations of Genesis are most consistent with scientific evidence and careful biblical interpretation. He presents the case for young–earth creationism, mature creation, the day–age theory, the analogical–day theory, and the framework hypothesis to see which of them stand up to scrutiny.

Vern S. Poythress (BS, California Institute of Technology; MDiv and ThM, Westminster Theological Seminary; MLit, University of Cambridge; DTh, Stellenbosch University; PhD, Harvard University) is professor of New Testament interpretation at Westminster Theological Seminary.
