William Lane Craig's recent work In Quest of the Historical Adam (2021) makes claims concerning the age of the earth, the evolution of man, and the text of the primeval history which he classifies as mytho-history. This classification of the primeval history's genre as mytho-history is problematic. Such a conclusion betrays a reader response hermeneutic consequent of Craig's presuppositions concerning recent scientific hypotheses. This article will seek to show that the proper genre of Genesis 2:4ff is historical narrative and not mytho-history. If the article is successful, then the reader will be left to decide whether to accept the historical narrative as factual or to reject its factuality, rendering the Bible as errant. This is the only hermeneutically valid option if authorial intention and original audience response to the text is maintained as the locus of meaning which the historical-grammatical method of exegesis has long demanded.
