https://bridgetown.church/teaching/year-of-biblical-literacy-midweek-lectures/interpreting-the-bibles-creation-stories/ ----- Genesis chapters 1 and 2 contain some of the most explosive ideas about God and human beings that history has ever known, but they’ve been sadly overlooked due to the creation-evolution controversies in American history. In this lecture, Tim Mackie will help us rediscover how ancient Israelites would have read and understood these stories, and explore how they contribute to the Biblical storyline as a whole. ----- Lecture Notes https://www.dropbox.com/sh/73vwa6lmz2hg1o4/AAAAcjjxhXNYpmmNLjp7H9_5a?dl=0&preview=Mackie+-+Interpreting+Genesis+1+and+2+Handout+-+2015.pdf ----- About Bridgetown Church We are a church practicing the way of Jesus, together, in Portland.
