The Seven Ages of Creation is a book written by John Martin Russell in 1898 that explores the biblical account of creation from a scientific and philosophical perspective. The book is divided into seven chapters, each representing a different ""age"" of creation, starting with the first age of chaos and ending with the seventh age of rest. Russell draws on various scientific and theological sources to explore the origins of the universe, the formation of the earth, and the evolution of life on earth. He also discusses the role of humanity in the grand scheme of creation and the concept of free will. Throughout the book, Russell emphasizes the importance of reconciling science and religion, arguing that they are not mutually exclusive but rather complementary ways of understanding the world. He also stresses the need for humility and open-mindedness when approaching these complex and often controversial topics. Overall, The Seven Ages of Creation is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the biblical account of creation and its implications for our understanding of the world around us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
