Six Days of Creation e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is several years since the writer sat down to study this question solely from the light of the Divine Word, determined that no geological considerations, on the one hand, and no irrational independence of science, on the other, should deflect his enquiries from their true exege tical course. In a very early stage of the investigation he became persuaded that we are in danger of putting modern notions on very ancient language, and that the idea of vast indefinite periods was most in accordance with the Spirit of the Hebrew Scriptures. The result has been most satisfactory to his own mind, and he wishes, therefore, to present it to the reader with the hope that it may be productive of the same conviction.
