Genesis - Kerux: A Commentary for Biblical Preaching and Teaching
While Genesis sits as the very first book of the Bible, many Christians are unaware of the richness this book has to offer. Symbolism, unfamiliar traditions or practices, and cultural differences can make Genesis confusing and difficult to understand, and application nearly impossible.
Authors John M. Soden and Randal E. Pelton use the model of deep exegetical insights paired with pastoral teachings to demonstrate how Genesis fits within God’s story for creation, as well as what that means for our lives today. Through rich theological insight, pastors, teachers, and theologians alike are invited to think deeply on Genesis, and to investigate the richness that the first book of the Bible has to offer with the goal of sharing that richness with others.
