5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent source for Genesis insight
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2002
Verified Purchase
This book is not for people who want to hear how inerrant the Old Testament is. Rather it is a fine example of what true Theological examination looks like. Gerhard von Rad takes Genesis and dissects it into fine details. Rarely does von Rad overlook a single detail. Taking into account language, history, and literary device, von Rad deals with Genesis in a way that will open up the stories into a new light, revealing pictures you've never even noticed before. Theist and atheist alike will find this commentary very insightful and useful in their study of Genesis.

This was just what I needed and in great shape. I bought the book used, but it was barely used, and is a great addition to my library. Sent very promptly.
