Publisher's Synopsis
Considering the broader canonical context, Dr. Hulisani Ramantswana challenges the standard interpretation of Genesis 1-3 and argues that the goodness of creation does not imply perfection, but instead infers its functionality. Proposing an alternative reading, he contends the hope in a new heaven and new earth suggests a radical transformation of the "good" creation instead of merely a restoration. Stimulating and thought-provoking, those interested in cultivating a deeper understanding creation and re-creation in the canonical perspective will appreciate this study.
