Overview

Excerpt from The Biblical Account, of the Creation: Shown to Be in Accordance With the Discoveries of Science This led me to make a careful study of every passage in the Bible that Speaks of the work of creation, particularly of the first two chapters of the book of Genesis, to determine their relation to each other, and their true interpretation with reference to the operations of nature. I soon found that the second chapter has a twofold meaning in accordance with the twofold form of the Divine name used in it, yahveh-elohim, -one part designating the Creator as the God of law and order, good and evil, and the other, as the God of sinless nature, - and that it is descriptive of the physical formation and condition of the earth, as well as of man, to whom alone it is regarded as having refer ence; and, further, that every chapter onward to the eleventh describes, in like manner, events con nected with creative action, which modified the face of the earth and the condition of man. This is the work which Elohim finished on the seventh day (see Gen. Ii. And it is on the border line which con neets the work of the sixth day with that of the seventh, and is therefore, common to both.
