Secular History

AELW2:236

Referring to the history recorded in the first eleven chapters of genesis.

"secular histories present nothing but what mankind has achieved by dint of reason and effort. But the Word of God is a greater gift, just as the Spirit, by whom the hearts of the godly are ruled, is a greater gift than reason. The former are earthly, but the latter are heavenly and divine; and for this reason they deserve our highest praise and admiration."
