Inhaltsangabe

Most of us are vitally interested in answers to the big questions of life. Where did we come from? Why are we here? What is the nature of man? How did we get here? What is our future? We consider any literature that deals with these questions relevant and timely.

Preeminent among literature about the big questions of life is the book of Genesis. Genesis is known as the book of beginnings, the book of firsts. It tells of the beginning of the world by creation, the beginning of mankind, the beginning of sin in the race, the beginning of salvation.

Dr. Vos examines those and other beginnings in the book of Genesis. He explores the stories in this book, offering insightful and helpful comments and explanations that will aid you in comprehending the message and scope of Genesis.

As a book of beginnings, Genesis is the seed plot and springboard for the concepts and history of the rest of the Old Testament. Through this commentary you will have a basis for understanding history as it unfolds in the other Bible books.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

THE BIBLE IS FOR EVERYONE.

Now biblical scholarship can be too.

Discover how enjoyable your personal study will be with understandable, quality Bible commentary for everyday life.

This commentary was extremely helpful in working through some of the difficult passages. Howard F. Vos takes a passage like the creation story and details several possible interpretations and explains them in a clear and understandable way. He leaves the reader with the option of coming to their own conclusion but also gives background support that leads the reader to the most supported view.

-Joe Timmer, Food Purchaser

Dr. Vos provides a detailed, biblically based examination of some of the most significant figures in the Bible through their faithfulness as well as their failures. Through these examples, readers will gain meaningful insight into their own relationship with a sovereign and holy God.

-Lauren Lim, Special Needs Paraeducator

Genesis can be an intimidating book to approach, but this commentary gave me confidence in understanding the places, people, and events within its pages. I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned from this book with my students!

-Jackie Long, Campus Ministry Leader
