Some Bible scholars have felt constrained by the claims of modern science to reformulate their reading of the creation week and to offer alternative interpretations that allow for a much greater span of time than that permitted by the more traditional six-day framework. I survey these modern alternatives in Part 1 of the study linked below. In my estimation, however, I am not convinced that scientific evidence for an old earth and universe is conclusive. I have found no compelling reason from Scripture or from science to reject the traditional view of six days of Genesis 1. In Part 2 of this series, I offer six reasons why we ought to interpret God's creative activity in Genesis 1 as occurring in a space of time corresponding to six 24-hour solar days.
