There's a passage in Genesis where Cain talks with God after killing Abel. At that point, only 4 people supposedly existed on earth, Cain, Abel, Adam, and Eve. However, after Cain killed Abel, God banished him from the land to be a wanderer. God said, "I will put a mark on your head so that no one will kill you." HUH...If there were only 3 people on earth at that time, who are these other people God were referring to.
Well, this book claims that Adam and Eve weren't actual people, but a symbol taking from Egyptian mythology. They claim that god made "man and woman" on the 6th day, and that it wasn't actually Adam and Eve.
^^That's an example of something I'd already known before I read this book.
An example of something stated in the book I disagree with is this:
The bible says David killed Goliath. The book claims that David's body guard killed Goliath. The problem is, the bible says David was still a boy at the time. He wouldn't have had a body guard yet. So, to reconcile this, the book claims the editors of the bible confused or rearrange the order of the text to make it appear as though David killed Goliath.
^^Arguments like that are more speculative and he didn't offer sound evidence to support it, IMO.
