(November 21, 2022 at 8:25 pm)Belacqua Wrote: In Galatians 4, Paul interprets the Genesis account of Abraham's sons as allegory.

Irenaeus of Lyons, in the 2nd century, interpreted the Adam and Eve story as allegory.

In the 3rd century, Origen said that the meaning could only be discerned by reading allegorically.

You're cherry-picking your sources; explain Bishop James Ussher's date of Creation, which was universally praised by both Catholic & Protestant churchmen and printed in English Bibles for over 2 centuries??
