Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Man: Paleolithic, Neolithic, and Several Other Races, Not Inconsistent With Scripture
And spreadest out the heavens like a curtain. - psalm civ. Z.
Until the recent discoveries made by geological research (even within the present century) the be lief was almost universal, that the earth and all that is therein was created in six of our days, and that all mankind were descended from Adam and Eve.
Man of himself could have known nothing of the origin of this world or of his own creation.
The Almighty was pleased to shadow forth a slight outline of the early stages of the earth, of its gradual progress from the time of its being without form, and void, to the time of its being prepared for the reception of animal life, and, ulti mately, for the support of man. It 3 manifest that this knowledge could only have been attained through Divine revelation, in whatever manner such revelation may have been made.
