I also believe the OPC link is most helpful. I have no issuse with saying that the Bible has a divine and human author, because God certainly inspired men to write Scripture, but Enns go far beyond this. The whole issue of regarding the history of Genesis as myth is purely old liberalism. I think what he does is redefine his terms and place them within "evangelical" language. I am afraid that much of modern evangelicalism like the culture redefines classic terms, but no matter how you redefine it a myth is a myth. I know (not personally) the names of a number of the men on the board of WTS-Philadelphia and they are solid, so I have confidence in their judgment. There has been concern by many about the direction of WTS-Philadelphia, so I wonder if the dismissal of Enns is the beginning of spring cleaning.
