Genesis Commentary Suggestion

This looks like a very good resource, by Jonathan Sarfati at Creation Ministries International.  Is this something that could ever become available for Accordance?  

 

The Genesis Account - A theological, historical, and scientific commentary on Genesis 1–11

This classic commentary on Genesis 1–11 contains a thorough analysis of the text itself, and has a number of features that set it apart from many other Genesis commentaries:

 

It defends the biblical creationist position: creation in six consecutive normal days, death resulting from Adam’s fall, and a globe-covering Flood, and confusion of languages at Babel, and in the process it explains how the rest of the Bible interprets Genesis in the above straightforward manner.

 

While skillfully documenting how interpreters throughout Church history have taught the above, and that long-age death-before-sin views were a reaction to 19th-century uniformitarian geology, it also provides cutting-edge scientific support for the Genesis history.

 

Importantly it demonstrates that all doctrines of Christianity begin in Genesis 1–11, and straightforwardly answers the commonest objections to a plain understanding of these crucial Genesis texts.

 

Commentaries that affirm a young earth and literal days are in short supply.  I know Dr. Barrick from the Master's Seminary is working on a commentary as well that affirms the straightforward reading of Genesis, but I believe that one is exclusive to Logos.  

 

Here's Sarfati's bio.
