Genesis 1 is badly understood in terms of its scientific value and in light of other Scriptures. This book is a detailed look at the first chapter of the Bible with systematic comments on every phrase. My hope for this book is to counteract some of the unfortunate Creation traditions. These ancient traditions are unfortunate because they do not stem from a whole-Bible approach to interpreting Genesis 1 and are at odds with the prevailing scientific knowledge of our days.

Each phrase of each verse is clearly highlighted, followed by the interpretation, any application, and the scientific understanding, if any applies.

This book is primarily designed as a reference book, though many people may be interested in reading it cover to cover. Because Genesis 1 uses repeated phrases, there is some repetition in this commentary, though I have tried to minimize the repetition. Be prepared to see Genesis as you've never seen it before: in light of modern science, an old earth, and even evolutionary theory.
