NOTES

Christian natural theology is founded on the proper coordination of Scripture and the created world, what was once called "The Two Books" of God.

Like the earlier volume, poetic description is offered as a primary vehicle for doing natural theology, which is shown to proceed according to the figural shape of the Bible's own description of the world
