Eugene F. Roop is president of Bethany Theological Seminary, Richmond, Indiana, and Wieand Professor of Biblical Studies there. He has served as a minister in the Church of the Brethren and is author of several books, including Genesis in the same series of commentaries, the Believers Church Bible Commentary (BCBC). The aim of this commentary series is to make the original message of scripture and its meaning understandable for today, especially to Sunday school teachers, members of Bible study groups, students, and those serving in ecclesiastical office. To that aim no Hebrew or other ancient languages are used in the commentary. Nevertheless, the results of recent scholarship have been integrated in as far as this did not impair readability. The authors of volumes in the series do the basic work, but while writing they consult counselors, work together with the editors, and receive feedback from another biblical scholars. As it is said in the foreword, thus these commentaries combine the individual writers own good work and the churchs voice. [Full Review]
