Carl Lawrenz and John Jeske present an argument that a key to correctly understanding Genesis is the historical nature of all 10 of Genesis’ accounts of God’s saving activity. Each author brings a scholar’s knowledge of biblical Hebrew, a high view of Scripture as the verbally inspired and inerrant written Word of God, and a keen understanding of God’s plan of salvation centered in Jesus Christ. This commentary contains the complete Hebrew text, the authors’ own original translations of the text, and a thorough exposition of every verse of Genesis chapters 1–11 using the historical-grammatical method of Scripture interpretation.
