Scot McKnight,
professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary

“In this ground-breaking work the author places Adam and Eve firmly where they belong—in the cultural and textual world of the ancient Near East. Scholarly and readable, the text seen through ancient Near Eastern eyes provides fascinating new insights into the question of human origins. The fine chapter by N. T. Wright provides the ‘icing on the cake.’ This book is warmly recommended to all those interested in how the Bible addresses the key question of human uniqueness.”

Denis Alexander,
emeritus director of the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion, St. Edmund’s College, Cambridge, author of
Creation or Evolution: Do We Have to Choose?
