Description

This large format edition comes with searchable Scholar PDF digital edition, which works interactively with the optional Hebrew-English Tanakh (Varda Books) and is emailed to a customer upon the presentation of the purchase receipt to the publisher. "An admirable textbook for intelligent adults (including clergy and seminary students) who want to study the book of Genesis in the light of the most up-to-date historical and archaeological information and who also want to get a real sense of its spiritual and moral significance. . . . It is sane, accurate, interesting, well-written. . . a first class piece of work. There is nothing like it for Jews and nothing better in its class for Christians." — Dr. Robert C. Dentan, Professor of Old Testament at General Theological Seminary "This book. . . is designed to make the Bible of Israel intelligible, relevant and, hopefully, inspiring to a sophisticated generation, possessed of intellectual curiosity and ethical sensitivity." — NYT Book Review ". . . this is the most comprehensive and careful interpretation of the Bible's initial book in light of the extra biblical sources bearing upon it, and as such, is to be highly recommended." — George M. Landes, Journal of Biblical Literature ". . . a work of high scholarship, [which is] at the same time within the understanding of the serious lay reader; valuable equally to those of the Jewish and Christian communities.” — Kirkus Review
