Fossils and Faith. Understanding Torah and Science

The book shows how far modern science affects religious belief. Professor Nathan Abiezer emphasizes that faith in God and the truth of the Bible is downright rejection of rational thinking. Quite the contrary modern scientific discoveries are becoming an important tool for understanding the various biblical episodes and thereby contribute to a more profound religiosity.
