The Antiquity of Genesis《创世记》的悠久历史 (Engl-Chinese 2022 ed)

<p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(42 42 42 1)>Destroying the Genesis foundation of the Bible has long been forefront in the battle against the Word of God - the Holy Bible - and against the God of the Word. In Part One: The Antiquity of Genesis Bill Cooper provides affirming evidence and exposes flawed attacks against the Holy Bible's claim to represent the history of the world and history of mankind from the Beginning.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(42 42 42 1)>One example is highlighted in the front cover subtitle History begins before the moon had a name. Cooper answers the false claim that the Book of Genesis was cobbled together by Jewish exiles in Babylon in the mid-first millennium B.C. since no person in moon-worshiping Babylon of that time would dare use the nameless Genesis moon description as a lesser light.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(42 42 42 1)>For a second example Bible deniers oft claim that the invading kings of Genesis 14 are not supported in extra-Biblical history. The answer comes quickly as you open the book. Front-and-center in the book's frontispiece images are presented showing names of the invading kings found in cuneiform clay tablets contemporary to Abraham in Genesis Chapter 14.</span></p><p class=ql-align-justify></p><p>《圣经》的争战都在打响。而《创世记》这卷书尤其遭到首当其冲的攻击。在《第一部分: <创世记>的真实性》中，比尔·库伯提供了有力的证据，揭露了对《圣经》所发出的攻击的漏洞，证明《圣经》所描绘的世界历史以及人类历史起源是真实可信的。</p><p></p><p>其中一个例子如封面副标题所强调的：早于月亮得名之前。 库伯对一个错误言论进行了回应，该错误言论认为《创世记》是在公元前第一千年中期由流放到巴比伦的犹太人拼凑而成，但在当时崇拜月亮的巴比伦，根本没人敢使用《创世记》中对月亮这个无名星体的描述--较小的发光体。<sup>*</sup></p><p></p><p>（*译注：指和合本圣经《创世记》1:16中那个小的星体: 于是　神造了两个大光，大的管昼，小的管夜，又造众星，）</p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(42 42 42 1)>第二个例子是，否认圣经的人经常宣称《创世记》14章中发动侵略的那几个王在《圣经》以外的史料中找不到。库伯在本书中就此给出迅速回应。本书开头正中央的图片展示了多块亚伯拉罕同时代的楔形文字泥板，这几位王的名字在其上昭然可见。</span></p><p></p><p class=ql-align-justify><span style=color: rgba(42 42 42 1)>Two important Part One appendices by Editor Vernon Bissell present (1) the ancient (3200-plus years) witness of the bronze temptation tree of Sanxingdui China and (2) profound apologetics implications of recent scholarship on Hebrew as the language of the first alphabet.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>本书编辑</span><span style=color: rgba(42 42 42 1)>Vernon Bissell为《第一部分》提供了两份重要附录。1）年代悠久（3200年以上）的中国三星堆铜制诱惑树的见证；2）一项对希伯来语作为最早拥有字母表的语言的研究，具有深刻的护教意义。</span></p>
