his interpretation of the Scripture, which ties into his contention for a literal and historical
account. Beall argues for Scripture to interpret itself and does not allow for science or
ANE texts to drive the foundation of the interpretation.


In Beall's responses to other views:


Two strong arguments against Averbeck's claims revolve around the text in Exodus 20, as
well Averbeck's use of Psalm 104. Beginning with the latter, Averbeck argues that Psalm
104 should be treated the same way as Genesis 1; however, as Todd Beall points out, "Ps
104 is a decidedly poetic account of creation, while Gen 1 is the straightforward prose
account. Second, Averbeck's argument entails his use of Exodus 20, specifically his
conclusion that Gen 1 is shaped to reinforce the pattern of the work week for the
Israelites. In the text of Exodus 20, God clearly seems to be calling Israel back to
something that happened in creation, specifically in verse 11. It is clear that the Sabbath is
patterned after the creation week and not the opposite.

, Todd Beall - Literal Approach


"Genesis 1 should be read (along with all of Gen 1-11) as historical narrative that is meant
to be taken literally". Beall argues that there should not be a different hermeneutic for
Genesis 1-11, much less Genesis 1-2, than the rest of the book.


Additionally, Beall stays away from ANE texts, writing that "the biblical account in
Genesis is so unlike other ANE literature that many scholars hold that the creation
account is a polemic against the ANE creation myths". Rather than comparing and
contrasting the writing of Genesis and ANE texts, Beall argues that readers ought to
take the text at face value and allow Scripture to interpret itself.


Additionally, Beall draws a connection between the New Testament authors with the
way they approach Genesis 1-2. Beall argues, "At least twenty-five NT passages refer to
Gen 1-11, and all take the accounts literally". In his argument for a literal approach, Beall
points to the necessity of a literal, historical account for several reasons, including the
conclusion that Jesus and the New Testament writers did the same. Especially Matt 19:4-

hermeneutics. In dealing with the New Testament and Jesus, Beall offers insight in
discussing how they viewed the creation account in Genesis 1-2. Beall allows this to
drive his interpretation of the Scripture, which ties into his contention for a literal and
historical account. Beall argues for Scripture to interpret itself and does not allow for
science or ANE texts to drive the foundation of the interpretation.
