THOTC: Genesis

In this commentary James McKeown treats Genesis as a book of beginnings and
a foundational sourcebook for biblical theology. He begins with exegesis of the
Hebrew text, highlighting the recurrence of key words, phrases, and themes
throughout the book. He also draws attention to passages particularly pertinent
to earlier readers either facing or returning from exile, offering a historical
context outside a solely Christian perspective. The second half of the
book unpacks the numerous theological horizons of Genesis - main unifying
themes (descendants, blessing, land), key theological teachings of Genesis
(creation, fall, character and image of God, life of faith), and the
contribution of Genesis to theology today, including its impact on science,
ecology, and feminist theology. McKeown's Genesis provides a solid
examination of a scriptural book that reflects the struggles and hopes of its
readers - ancient and modern - and offers encouragement for their
walk with God.'The world of Genesis scholarship is currently
embroiled in swirling change. This book offers a solidly evangelical rock in
the midst of the turbulent flow.' - Anthony F. CampbellSeries: Two
