– In few works of this kind is the treatment of creation, the imago dei, temptation, and the Fall as thorough as it is in this volume. In clear, unmistakable terms, Dr. MacDonald separates the Creator from things He created. In doing so, he shows our accountability to Him and the need for us to acknowledge His sovereignty. To all who seek answers to the dilemmas of life, this work by Dr. Donald MacDonald is commended. So deft is his treatment that, in reviewing his work, the Journal of Sacred Literature state emphatically, “We do not hesitate to designate this volume as the foremost examination of the literature and the exegesis of the creation and fall which has appeared to date.”
