- Being An Essay On The First Chapter Of Genesis (1861)
233,95 kr. ""Creation In Plan And In Progress"" is an essay written by James Challis in 1861, which explores the first chapter of Genesis in the Bible. The book provides a detailed analysis of the creation story, examining the language used in the original text and offering insights into the meaning and significance of the biblical account. Challis argues that the creation story should be understood as a poetic and symbolic representation of the natural world, rather than a literal account of the origins of the universe. He also explores the scientific theories of his time, drawing parallels between the biblical account and contemporary scientific understanding of the natural world. Overall, ""Creation In Plan And In Progress"" offers a thoughtful and nuanced interpretation of the creation story, blending religious and scientific perspectives to provide a deeper understanding of this foundational text.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

188,95 kr. Thank you for checking out this book by Theophania Publishing. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you soon. We have thousands of titles available, and we invite you to search for us by name, contact us via our website, or download our most recent catalogues. Considering that under the existing conditions of humanity, disease, and decay, and death abound on every side, it is surprising that the word "immortality" obtained a place in systems of philosophy, the authors of which must be supposed to have been unacquainted with divine revelation. It is not surprising that in the absence of such aid the belief of immortality should not have been firmly held, or that by some philosophers it should have been expressly disavowed. Even in the Canonical Scriptures, the words "immortal" and "immortality" occur only in the Epistles of the Apostle Paul, and consequently not till "life and immortality had been brought to light through the Gospel." It is a remarkable circumstance that these words are met with more frequently in the Apocryphal Books, 2 Esdras, Wisdom of Solomon, and Ecclesiasticus, than in the Canonical Scriptures. The explanation of the apparent silence of the Scriptures, especially those of the Old Testament, on so essential a doctrine, will, I think, be found to be given by the course of argument adopted in this essay.
