Synopsis

Explore how science and faith intersect in biblical chronology and early geology.

This edition surveys big questions about how Genesis aligns with geological time, and it traces debates from Darwinism to monism. Read as a careful, historical look at how scholars approach the origins of life, the age of the earth, and the timeline of biblical events.

This volume surveys the major ideas and the critics who challenge them. It frames the scope of biblical chronology, surveys geological notions, and discusses how scholars date events from creation to the apostles. The writing stays focused on the arguments and the evidence, offering a clear view of competing theories.

• Key debates about the age of the world and the timing of Genesis.
• Introductions to geology terms and how they relate to biblical history.
• Critiques of monism and discussions of spontaneous generation in a historical context.
• Chronologies surrounding the life of Jesus, the apostles, and early Christian history.

Ideal for readers of theology, history, and science who want a precise, historical lens on how biblical chronology meets scientific inquiry.
