The Interpreters of Genesis and the Interpreters of Nature

Essay #4 from "Science and Hebrew Tradition"

Description of the book

The Interpreters of Genesis and the Interpreters of Nature: Essay #4 from "Science and Hebrew Tradition" by Thomas Henry Huxley is about interpretations of the book of Genesis. Excerpt: "Our fabulist warns "those who in quarrels interpose" of the fate which is probably in store for them; and, in venturing to place myself between so powerful a controversialist as Mr. Gladstone and the eminent divine whom he assaults with such vigor in the last number of this Review, I am fully aware that I run great danger of verifying Gay's prediction. Moreover, it is quite possible that my zeal in offering aid to a combatant so extremely well able to take care of himself as M. Reville may be thought to savor of indiscretion."
