Creation and the God of Abraham

Discover the profound insights of David B. Burrell in Creation and the God of Abraham, published by Cambridge University Press in 2013. This thought-provoking work spans 288 pages and delves into the concept of creatio ex nihilo—the belief that God created the universe from nothing. This foundational doctrine is pivotal in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. In this edited collection, Burrell and contributors examine how to reclaim a significant role for this doctrine while providing a robust defense of the God of Abraham through philosophical, scientific, and theological lenses. Perfect for those interested in cosmogony, cosmology, and the interplay between religion and science, this book invites readers to engage with essential questions about creationism and evolution.
