THE EIGHTH DAY OF CREATION

Hardback

“I imagine those, whether Christian or not, who would enjoy Scripture if they did not find it so intimidating in size, complexity, and the frightening things sometimes ascribed to it. For them I offer up a simple and, I hope, friendly introduction to Christian Scripture.”— C. Clifton Black

This unusual anthology contains 568 select Scripture excerpts organized thematically according to the opening chapter of Genesis. In the majestic cadences of the King James Version, these selections variously sing of God’s majesty and mystery, life’s darkness and light, a divine ecology, distinctions and differences, seasons and cycles, the dependable and the unreliable, God’s economy, and Sabbath.
