These eleven chapters lift the veil shrouding a world before our own, the world before Abraham. In doing so - centering upon Adam and Eve, Noah, and the Tower of Babel - they reveal three moments of a progressive fall, a further plunging into darkness and disorder, and yet throughout, Yahweh Elohim, the Lord God, remains faithful to his creation. + Stan Johnson [781.883.5577] + Jim Cochrane [317.650.9668]
