Manage episode 360323764 series 2353158
Were Adam and Eve the first people? What is the purpose of the Garden of Eden? What is true about Genesis, and what is real? How literal should we be about what we read? Dr John Walton has spent his entire academic career looking at these issues and many more.
Alex, Chris and Jo talk to John about the Ancient Near Eastern understanding of the origins of the universe, humanity, and how best we should read these ancient texts in our modern world.
