This book is a welcome addition to the immense bibliography on Genesis. It is not a rehash of the "same old stuff." It introduces readers to the latest in Pentateuchal scholarship and hermeneutical technique in a brief and concise way. It should be required reading in any course on Genesis. This book is designed with serious students of the Pentateuch in mind. They will not be disappointed.
