It is not written as a dogmatic statement of absolute authority, but rather it is meant as a translation that conforms to the literal writing of Genesis. I am aware that it differs widely from conventional teachings. When I first read the book of Genesis, however, I did not have the benefit of much formal religious training, so I was not influenced by the opinions and interpretations of others. From the outset I formed the theories that are stated here based on the words I read, and further study has only served to strengthen those concepts. This is what the book of Genesis says to me. I offer it as a possible alternative to the interpretations that have been handed down unquestioned and unchallenged for several hundred years.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e What this book is not is a work of apologetics. I have begun with the assumption that the Bible says what it means, and means what it says.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46480869851287,"sku":"9781512731033","price":2343.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781512731033.jpg?v=1766310555","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/common-sense-and-genesis-9781512731033","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
