I look forward to reading your comments!

Yes! The Gap Theory. Thank you for bringing that up, Lynell. That’s a big “wondering” that I have. Looking forward to exploring that in Episode 2.

Hello Nehamia,

I’ve been listening to your videos for years now, but somehow missed any of your discussions on Genesis 1 until today. Thanks for sharing!

You’ve clearly thought about what we can learn from the text and what we can’t and I really value this kind of assessment. I’ve just recently published a book on a similar topic, and I am wondering if i can send you a copy? I find it fascinating how much of the scientific literature of the recent past points towards a historical interpretation of the Biblical creation account.
Let me know if you’re interested. Until then, I’ll continue lurking and listening.

God bless you and your wife and family!
