I had just assumed that Genesis was oral history that the ancients handed down. Someone somewhere thought to write it down.The creation story: (Genesis)
- Was the universe created in six literal days?
- Was Adam the first human, a created being?
- Was Adam created in the image of God, after his likeness? (appearance)
- Is the Genesis account literal, or figurative?
- Was the Genesis account based on an oral tradition? (origins myth)
- In reference to Adam, is the conclusion of the genealogy of Jesus correct? (see below)
Luke 3:38 NIV
the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.
So I think it is a good record of what the ancients believed, how they thought about God.
I never thought I was supposed to believe what they believed though??
