Have we misread the Adam and Eve story? John Walton vs Stephen Lloyd
Playback speed
John Walton, professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College, Illinois, has authored the book ‘The Lost World of Adam and Eve. He argues that Adam and Eve were intended as archetypes for humankind, and the story is not mean to be taken as an account of our material origins.
Stephen Lloyd, who holds to Young Earth Creation, argues that Walton undermines Christian theology as a whole with his view of Genesis.
