Describing God's creation of human beings, Genesis 1:26 says: “then God said, 'Let Us make (asah) humans in Our image, according to Our likeness'”; Genesis 2:7 reads, “Then the LORD God formed (yatsar) man of dust from the ground”; and Genesis 5:1 declares, “He made (asah) them in the divine likeness.”
Given the fact that (1) both Scripture and the early church fathers clearly understand “natural” law and processes as God's direct action in creation and (2) that Scripture's view of the close relationship between humans and other animals does not de facto rule out an evolutionary understanding,11 there is no reason to suppose that the creation langue of Scripture is unambiguously juxtaposed to the idea that God creates through evolution.
