Publisher's Synopsis
Readers will find that this book (Second Edition) is based on young earth creationism and that the author espouses a tightly woven chronology in which the Noachian deluge occurs at 2518 B.C. Pilkey realizes that "to dispute high chronology with a Darwinian is like blaspheming against the idea of eternity, because vast time periods have become for the Darwinist "a substitute for eternity."He writes a compelling apologetic for what he calls "Noahic science," which he feels is "the atomic physics of world history." Pilkey believes that Noahic science when fully conceived will liberate us from Darwinism so that we will then be able to see the past for what it really was.The author carefully and brilliantly exegetes such archaeological sources as the Gundestrup Caldron and Mesopotamian Seals. While paying attention to Scripture, Pilkey demonstrates that the myths and king lists of ancient societies support the Biblical pattern of monophylogenetic human origins. Pilkey attempts to bring identity between such widely separated fields as human mythology, Biblical truth and the plight of modern man. Fascinating parallels are drawn, for example, between Peleg's struggle with Canaan and Elijah's later conflict with Jezebel, herself a Canaanite descendant.To those who would argue that the Bible should be treated as a book of salvation alone, ignoring any of its historical, cultural, or related features, Pilkey answers as follows: "The Bible functions as a book of salvation precisely because it is a book of science, literature, and philosophy. True science is salvation from ignorance; historical literature is salvation from pagan amnesia; and true philosophy is the Logos Jesus Christ, the Truth, and Savior. One reason that secularism has spread in our day is that persons of religious background have become spiritually and therefore, intellectually lazy, unimaginative, and apathetic toward key issues of faith." Specialists in history or mythology would do well to read the book consecutively. Interested general readers, however, might wisely begin with the last three chapters (7, 8, and 9) to achieve an overview of the principals involved before attempting to assimilate the array of details found in the earlier chapters. Creationists and others desiring to understand Noah's family and its contribution to present-day national governments will find this volume indispensable. All students of ancient literature and mythology should consider their work deficient if they do not study this truly landmark endeavor.Second Edition, 2019 comes with additional commentaries and footnotes by the Editor.350 pagesBooks On Amazon by Dr. John D.
