Story of Creation

Miner Campbell Samuel

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I offer great latitude here to the speculations of modern science. This will not strike all my readers favorably; but time, I think, will justify the course I have taken. I have lived to see the nebular hypothesis propounded, disputed, and at last quite generally. Accepted. The development hypothesis seems passing the same ordeal. It has not yet, by any means, been established,-but it is every year gaining ground with sc1entific men; and the question is already upon us, whether, in case that hypothesis were established, we could maintain our faith in the Bible. Some scientific men say no some zeal ously religions men say no. Others, equally wise and equally good, say yes: the Mosaic cosmogony and the development hypothesis may be so interpreted as to stand in perfect har mony. In this work I take my stand with the latter class, and make my appeal to all honest inquirers and earnest workers, whether in the field of biblical interpretation or in that of scien tific research. Whether we read from the rock-record or from the inspired Word, the story of creation is essentially the same.
