The Evolution of Adam

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Enns deals with one of the most challenging issues facing Christians today: the historicity of Adam. Was there really a man named Adam from whom all men and women descend? How are we to understand the story of Adam? More importantly, how are we to understand Paul’s theological use of Adam? Enns is well equipped to deal with these volatile issues, holding a PhD from Harvard University in Old Testament studies and having taught for thirty years at various evangelical seminaries and colleges. With grace and incisive scholarship he offers a provocative thesis that will certainly interest and challenge the church. From my perspective, Enns fulfills Jesus’s commandment that we love the Lord our God with all our mind (Matt. 22:37), and he does so fearlessly and faithfully.”
