Genesis 1-2: Origins or Identity? – Feat. Dr. John Walton
BibleProject
Are the Biblical Authors Assuming Certain Ideas With Their Near Eastern Neighbors?
i want to take us kind of back and then forward to something you brought up earlier, john walton, about the indebtedness, or the imbebtedness, of these creation narratives in the bible. And i think it was actually in your monograph on genesis one, genesis one as ancient cosmology. What i really appreciated and it was there is a spectrum of ways that biblical authors can interact with ideas in their culture environment. Of course, that's the most fundamental dictum of comparative studies. There are simil ities and differences, and you ignore either one of them to your risk, to your peril.
