    Regarding the idea of how the people of the OT saw there world, nature this
    is, can anyone say for certainty whether Genesis was written based upon the
    views of the day, or were the views of the day based upon their
    interpretation of the text itself? If one accepts that the text was given by
    God then the text is as it stands regardless of human fallibility to
    discover it's meaning. This of course means that while the people of the
    time may have had their own understanding this alone did not make them
    right.

    Good Morning to all!
