John Walton’s new book on Genesis (The Lost World of Genesis One: Ancient Cosmology and the Origins Debate
), which essentially argues that Genesis 1 is about the function of materials instead of the construction or creation of materials, was blogged about on this blog at length. The book generated lots of conversation and learning. Not all are in agreement with John, and one of his stronger critics is Vern Poythress.

The review by Poythress, in World Magazine, was critical enough that John has now responded.
