Recent years have seen a remarkable surge in interest in the book of Genesis - the first book of the Bible - and a foundational text of Western culture. In this new commentary Thomas Brodie offers a complete and accessible overview of Genesis from literary theological and historical standpoints. Brodie's work is organized around three main ideas: the first is that the primary subject of Genesis is human existence - while full of historical echoes it is primarily a sophisticated portrayal of the progress and pitfalls of human life. His second thesis is that Genesis' basic organizational unity is binary or diptych: building on older insights that Genesis is somehow dialogical he argues that the entire book is composed of diptychs - accounts which like some paintings consist of two parts or panels. Finally Brodie contends that many of Genesis' sources still exist and can be identified and verified.
