Evolutionary science teaches that humans arose as a population,
sharing common ancestors with other animals. Most readers of the
book of Genesis in the past understood all humans descended from
Adam and Eve, a couple specially created by God. These two
teachings seem contradictory, but is that necessarily so? In the
fractured conversation of human origins, can new insight guide us
to solid ground in both science and theology? In The Genealogical
Adam and Eve, S. Joshua Swamidass tests a scientific hypothesis:
What if the traditional account is somehow true, with the origins
of Adam and Eve taking place alongside evolution? Building on
well-established but overlooked science, Swamidass explains how
it's possible for Adam and Eve to be rightly identified as the
ancestors of everyone. His analysis opens up new possibilities for
understanding Adam and Eve, consistent both with current scientific
consensus and with traditional readings of Scripture. These new
possibilities open a conversation about what it means to be human.
In this book, Swamidass untangles several misunderstandings about
the words human and ancestry, in both science and theology explains
how genetic and genealogical ancestry are different, and how
universal genealogical ancestry creates a new opportunity for
rapprochement explores implications of genealogical ancestry for
the theology of the image of God, the fall, and people "outside the
garden" Some think Adam and Eve are a myth. Some think evolution is
a myth. Either way, the best available science opens up space to
engage larger questions together. In this bold exploration,
Swamidass charts a new way forward for peace between mainstream
science and the Christian faith.

The purpose of Key Approaches to Biblical Ethics is to address
fundamental as well as practical questions of methodology in
examining the ethical material of the Bible. Sixteen scholars of
international reputation, most of them leaders in the field of
biblical ethics, discuss questions of biblical interpretation from
the perspectives of the Hebrew Bible and New Testament ethics in
close dialogue with one another. In the present volume both
established and new approaches to biblical ethics are presented and
discussed. The result is a volume of unprecedented scholarly
interaction that provides key insights into issues of biblical
ethics that play a significant role both for biblical
interpretation as well as for methodological questions in Jewish
and Christian ethics today.
