Resumo
In the present work, I will divide the history of the interpretation of Genesis into three periods. For heuristic purposes, they will be termed the Platonic, Aristotelian, and Copernican periods. Thus, the first section of this paper surveys how the New Testament writers read the first chapter of Genesis. Here I deal with the concept of historicity inherent in Genesis 1-3 and show how the authors of the New Testament believed that Genesis was a reliable historical account of Earth’s Origins. Then I will proceed to highlight the changes that took place. The second section of this paper looks at how such an interpretation shifted in the first four centuries through a Platonic reading of Genesis and in the Middle Ages through an Aristotelian reading. Finally, the third section of this article looks at the Copernican Revolution and points a critique on these conceptions.
