Genesis Unbound: A Provocative New Look at the Creation Account - by John H. Sailhamer

I saw this mentioned in another thread on the forums and realized it's another book that I have in dead-tree format which isn't available in Logos. Logos has a number of other books by Sailhamer. This is an important contribution to the dialogue on Creation/Genesis, age of the universe, science, etc.

I voted although I have it in my bookshelf. I've heard that Sailhamer provided this book as a starting point for a discussion and not as a strong opinion.
In Africa ethnic groups usually have a narrative of the creation and then a narrative of their own ethnic group. As I see it, Genesis is just like that: the narrative of the Adam's tribe starting in 2:4b. But I have not seen any book saying that.

Maybe you need to write it! Or at least an article about that, and let someone else take up the idea and expand it to a book unless you're the book-writing sort.
