Louis Ginzberg's great compendium of Jewish legends, myths and
ancient lore challenge readers to understand the civilization
behind the greatest prophecies and holy writings ever written.
Volume One begins with the years of creation, detailing God's
creation of the Earth and all the lands and creatures upon it.
Man's creation, and the story of Adam and Eve, are duly related, as
are the ten generations which separated Adam from Noah. Volume Two,
roughly corresponding with the Biblical Books of Exodus and Job,
begins with the life and death of Joseph. His life and the lives of
Jacob's sons - the founders of the Jewish tribes - are likewise
told. Volume Three commences with Moses finally deciding to lead
the Jews out of Egypt, the oppression of the Pharaoh having become
too much to bear. Volume Four opens with the story of Joshua, who
was the servant of Moses and one of the twelve spies who scouted
the lands of Canaan at Moses' behest.
