The Bible itself gives us the correct interpretation of Genesis 1–3. In both Old and New Testaments, it always refers to Creation Week as a literal event. A natural and straightforward reading of the text in Genesis 1-2 also reveals that it is literal in nature. When considering the genealogies, the Bible (not the exaggerated dating methods of science), teaches us that the universe is relatively young, while possessing the appearance of age and maturity, and that all of creation was accomplished in the span of six literal days. To deny this is to rob God of His infinite glory (1 Cor. 10:31), whose power, might, and infinite wisdom is reflected in the wonder of His creation. Revelation 4:11 “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” “This is my Father’s world, and to my listening ears, All nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres. This is my Father’s world: I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas; His hand the wonders wrought.”
