NICOT: Genesis 1 - 17

'In the Old Testament we read GodÉs word as it was spoken to his people Israel. Today, thousands of years later, we hear in these thirty-nine books his
inspired and authoritative message for us.' These twin convictions, shared by
all of the contributors to The New International Commentary on the Old
Testament, define the goal of this ambitious series of commentaries. For
those many modern readers who find the Old Testament to be strange and foreign
soil, the NICOT series serves as an authoritative guide bridging the cultural
gap between todayÉs world and the world of ancient Israel. Each NICOT volume
aims to help us hear GodÉs word as clearly as possible.
'Hamilton
does an excellent job interpreting the text in a positive way as well as
handling the difficult questions of the book (creation story, history of
patriarchs, religion of patriarchs). Between Wenham and Hamilton, Genesis is
well-covered.' - Tremper Longman
