4.0 out of 5 stars Did you READ it??, October 11, 2004

This review is from: The Remarkable Record of Job (Paperback)

I have to wonder sometimes if a few of these reviews are written before having read the book. Nowhere does Henry Morris in any of his writings suggest that every statement in the Bible is to be taken literally. Creationists acknowledge that the Bible is made up of many different types of literature (narrative, poetry, etc.) What they teach is that the Bible should be taken as written, period. If a passage is a narrative passage, we should take it as fact. If it is poetic or symbolic we should take it as that and understand what the symbolism means.

This is an excellent book which points out many, many scientific truths referenced in the Book of Job which were not 'discovered' by men until much, much later, thereby pointing to the divine inspiration of the scriptures.

Does Henry Morris in this book (or anywhere?) claim the sky is 'hard as burnished bronze' because of this symbolic reference? No, this is simply a 'straw man' argument because what Mr. Morris has ACTUALLY written is not easy to argue with if one truly believes the Bible is inerrant.

BTW, the first chapter of Genesis is not a 'hymn'. If you want an example of hymns in scripture read Psalms. Genesis Chapter one is a narrative account of God's creation of the universe.

BTW again, this whole thing is really moot since the previous reviewer misquoted scripture.

Job 37:18 ACTUALLY says: "Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?"

The quote implies that the sky or firmament is 'strong' not 'hard' and that it resembles a mirror at times, both of which are true statements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Take a new and exciting look at the oldest book in the Bible, April 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Remarkable Record of Job: The Ancient Wisdom, Scientific Accuracy, and Life-Changing Message of an Amazing Book (Hardcover)

This book is a very refreshing devotional. Take an exciting new look at the oldest book in the Bible - the ancient book of Job! Learn about how Job lived during the Ice Age and describes dinosours that he has seen (Beheemoth and Leviathon)! Henry Morris is a world famous Christian scientist, and this book is written as well as his many others. I highly recommend this book to any born-again Christian!

This review is from: Remarkable Record of Job: Ancient Wisdom and Scientific Accuracy of an Amazing Book (Hardcover)

This book is a very refreshing devotional on the book of Job. It is written exceptionally well, just like every other work Henry Morris has published. Take a look at the wonderful book of Job from a new perspective. Examine both the scientific and theological aspects of Job. Learn about how Job describes the Ice Age (during which time he lived) and dinosaurs! I highly recommend this book to any born again Christian!
