What Did the Reformers Believe About the Age of the Earth?

Book Description:

In this booklet, Dr. Joel Beeke examines the writings of Reformers such as Martin Luther and John Calvin to determine what they believed and taught about the days of Genesis and the age of the earth. He shows how these Reformers and those they inspired held to a literal reading of Genesis 1, arguing that a robust doctrine of creation provides a strong foundation for our faith.
