This landmark commentary marshals the vast experience and brilliant
insights of one of today s most revered Old Testament scholars. To
those familiar with the work of Bruce K. Waltke, the significance
and value of Genesis will be instantly apparent. Others who are
unfamiliar with Waltke have only to read the first few chapters to
understand why he has earned the reputation of a scholar s scholar,
and why this masterful volume stands like a monolith among Old
Testament commentaries. Exploring the first book of the Bible as
'theological literature, ' Waltke illuminates its meanings and
methods for the pastor, scholar, teacher, student, and Bible-lover.
Genesis strikes an unusual balance by emphasizing the theology of
the Scripture text while also paying particular attention to the
flow and development of the plot and literary
techniques--inclusion, irony, chiasm, and concentric
patterning--that shape the message of the 'book of beginnings'.
Genesis Models the way to read and interpret the narratives of the
book of Genesis Provides helpful exegetical notes that address key
issues and debates surrounding the text Includes theological
reflections on how the message addresses our contemporary
theological and social issues, such as ecology, homosexuality,
temperance, evil, prayer, and obedience Addresses critical
interpretive issues, such as authenticity, date, and authorship For
all the author s formidable intellect and meticulous research,
Genesis is amazingly accessible. This is no mere study tool.
Lucidly and eloquently written, it is a work of the heart that
helps us not only to understand deeply God s Word in its context,
but also to consider how it applies to us today."
