A careful and unbiased analysis of how thinkers from church history interpreted the creation narrative in GenesisHow literally are we meant to take the creation week of Genesis 1? In this polarizing debate, contemporary interpreters invoke great theologians from history to support their own side, whether that be a young Earth, theistic evolution, or any other view.The problem lies in trying to force ancient authors into contemporary boxes, as Andrew J. Brown shows in this thoughtprovoking volume. Covering Philo, Basil, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Wesley, and more, Brown carefully interprets great thinkers readings of Genesis 1 in their intellectual contexts. He then assesses how these authors have been subject to cherrypicking and misappropriation in the trenches of the modern creation debate.By studying the intellectual history of the church in this wayto revisit rather than recruit the ancientswe can enrich our own biblical interpretation. Irenic and magisterial, Browns guide will interest both scholars of historical theology and anyone invested in the creation debate.
