Summary:

"This commentary provides assistance in holy reading of the Bible. It gives structure to daily personal devotions, family meditation, small group Bible studies, and church classes. Some study Genesis to try and answer questions about science. Some teach the book looking for moral examples from its heroes. However, Genesis is all about the character of God. The spirituality of Genesis centers on God as Creator and God as a Faithful Partner. As we read these stories of those who trusted, followed, and wrestled with God, let us open ourselves to his Spirit. Let us trust his inscrutable ways. Let us believe God so he might, through his covenant of love, count us as righteous"-- Provided by publisher.
