Title: Dangerous wolf in sheep's clothing
Product review: Now here is a strange book written by an educated Christian who teaches at a seminary in St. Louis. Collins has come up with the analogical days theory to explain the six days of creation (he thinks the six days were several years). He builds his entire case on a very poor interpretation of Genesis 2:5. We'll probably be hearing more about this in the next few years, and for that reason it is good to know what his case is (and it is very weak). Collins suggests a literal interpretation of the Bible is bad, but then he continually leans on this method to build his cases for a variety of bad expositions including long ages (millions of years) having passed since the universe was created and support for macro-evolution. His book is written in a very friendly manner that kind of warms you up to him, but his shared opinions and interpretation of some Scripture is very, very bad. The sad thing is knowing that this stuff is actually being taught in a seminary.
