(Cecil Andrews – Take Heed Ministries) ‘New Testament scholar N. T. Wright is facing backlash after saying he is unsure whether some famous Bible figures were historical individuals. On his podcast, Wright suggested Adam and Eve may have been an original human pair chosen for a “special purpose,” while Job and Jonah could function more like “folk tales” or literary stories meant to teach truth. He said Christians should focus less on proving historicity and more on the message of each book.’
There are further details of what he said to be found by reading the article beginning here.
On page 2 of that article we read where Mr Wright claimed about Adam and Eve that they ‘were part of what he called “a very careful, layered ancient Middle Eastern story” in Genesis 1 … Rejecting a literal 24 hour creation week, Wright said he is “inclined to see an original human pair” in the figures of Adam and Eve, referring to them as “HOMINIDS” and “humanlike creatures.” “We might even call them proto-humans for many generations, perhaps for many thousands of years before the time we’re now talking about.”
