The Evolution of Adam: What the Bible Does and Doesn't Say about Human Origins by Peter Enns

challenging informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

Pete Enns gives us a framework to think about how the people 2000 years ago and more thought about when they read the texts we call Bible now. Seeing the Bible as ancient allows us to better understand how they saw Adam and the reinterpretation Paul gave Adam I light of the resurrection of Jesus.
