The Lost World of Genesis One: Ancient Cosmology and the Origin ( Sohseiki Issho no Saihakken: Kodai no Sekai Kan de Seisho o Yomu )
Using 18 formal propositions based on a rigorous study of the Hebrew word "bara" (create) and ancient Near Eastern literature, Walton constructs a compelling, provocative and original interpretation of Genesis 1. He argues that, Genesis 1 was written to show the people in that ancient Near Eastern world that the cosmos was created as a functioning temple where God takes up his residence as his headquarters from which he runs the world. The creation account is far more concerned with the cosmos being given its functions as God's temple than it is with the manufacture of the material structures of the earth and universe. It is not so concerned with modern people's questions of what can be learned from science regarding origins. So it sheds fresh light on the discussion of origins while recognizing the real authority of the Bible as God's Word. A5 size, 200 pp.
