Did Adam and Eve Really Exist?
Who They Were and Why You Should Care
“We need a real Adam and Eve if we
are
to make sense of the Bible and of
life,” argues C. John Collins.
Examining the biblical storyline as the
worldview story of the people of God,
Collins shows how that story
presupposes a real Adam and Eve and how
the modern experience of life points to
the same conclusion.
Applying well-informed critical
thinking to common theological and
scientific questions, Collins asserts
the importance of a real man at the
beginning in God's plan for creation, a
plan that includes "redemption" for all
people since sin entered the world.
Did Adam and Eve Really Exist?
addresses both biblical and Jewish
texts and contains extensive appendices
to examine how the material in Genesis
relates to similar material from
Mesopotamian myths. Collins’s detailed
analysis of the relevant texts will
instill confidence in readers that the
traditional Christian story equips them
better than any alternatives to engage
the life that they actually encounter
in the modern world.
