Last updated

Swamidass published The Genealogical Adam and Eve: The Surprising Science of Universal Ancestry in 2019 based on implications of recent universal genealogical ancestry regarding the theology of the image of God, the fall, and people outside the garden. [15] The appendix includes Swamidass' work The Resurrection, Evidence, and The Scientist, which discusses his reasons for belief in the resurrection of Jesus. [16] In his interview with “BibleProject Podcast”, he discussed the differences between genealogical ancestry and genetic ancestry, and explored the conflict that exists between evolutionary science and creationism. Furthermore, he stated "The genealogical account does not prove [Adam and Eve’s existence], but it’s impossible to disprove the existence of such a couple 6,000 years ago." [17] Anjeanette Roberts praised Swamidass’ work and stated that in his book the emphasis on "genealogical ancestry is so clearly biblical that its long-term absence in evangelical conversations about human origins is shocking" and the work also helps to remove "the enmity and barriers that divide scientists, theologians, exegetes, evolutionists, and creationists." [18] Nathan H. Lents thought the book's "bold attempt" to find a place for Adam and Eve within the scientific understanding of human ancestry might help reconcile evangelicals to evolutionary science, and science in general, but thought it unlikely to persuade scientists of a role for the Genesis narrative in human origins. [19]
