Thomas Merton presented numerous sets of conferences during his
decade (1955-1965) as novice master at the Cistercian Abbey of
Gethsemani. The two courses included in this volume - a thorough
examination of the book of Genesis that began in mid-1956 and
concluded on the Feast of Pentecost in 1957, and a series of
classes on the book of Exodus from 1957 and 1958 - are here
presented for the first time in a critical edition accompanied by
extensive annotation and a comprehensive introduction. These
courses comprise the only major surviving teaching notes on
particular books of Scripture dating from the years when Merton was
in charge of the novitiate. They provide direct access to his views
on the intellectual and spiritual contexts in which they should be
understood. As biblical scholar Pauline Viviano writes in her
preface, 'this edition of Thomas Merton's class notes brings us
into the workings of a great spiritual leader's mind as he reflects
upon Scripture. . . . all who are on a spiritual journey can gain
from his insights and the lessons he draws.'
