Beginnings are important. If we want to understand the Bible as a whole, it is vital to understand what it teaches about creation. W. Robert Godfrey has written this study with thoughtful Christians in mind. He carefully examines the text, knowing that the Bible is a covenantal record that is always focused on God and his relationship to his people. - Back cover.
