      Life and career


      Collins received a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) and a Master of Science (M.S.) in computer science and systems engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) from Faith Evangelical Lutheran Seminary, and a Ph.D. in Biblical Hebrew linguistics from the School of Archaeology and Oriental Studies at the University of Liverpool.
      Collins was Old Testament Chairman for the ESV Study Bible, served as ESV Text Editor for The English-Greek Reverse Interlinear New Testament (Crossway, 2006), and is Old Testament Editor of the English Standard Version Study Bible.
      He has published numerous articles in technical journals, as well as The New International Dictionary of Old Testament Theology and Exegesis. In 2000 his book on the theological and exegetical aspects of divine action, entitled The God of Miracles, was published by Crossway. It was also carried by InterVarsity Press in the UK the following year. His next book, Science and Faith: Friends or Foes? was also published by Crossway in 2003, followed by Genesis 1-4: A Linguistic, Theological, and Literary Commentary, published by P&R (2006).
      Collins' recent book Did Adam and Eve Really Exist?: Who They Were and Why You Should Care (Crossway, 2011), in which he highlights the importance to Christian theology of believing that the biblical period fall of man was a historical event. The book explores four biblically defensible views, and how each comports or contrasts with modern theories of human evolution. Collins has been a prominent voice in recent discussion among evangelicals on this topic.
