 Collins presents a convincing case that Genesis 1-4 provides an important foundation for the reading of the rest of the Pentateuch as well as the Bible itself. The reader also leaves convinced that Collins's integrated approach has merit, and valuable insights were generated by each component of his analysis. But what is gained in such a project in breadth is lost in depth. At times I felt the author longing for the opportunity to press into a more sustained discussion. So while it will not be the only commentary needed to expose the literary-theological dimension of Genesis 1-4, its price and helpful contribution will bring it to many a pastor's and scholar's shelf.
Much controversy surrounds the opening chapters of Genesis. They are "front-loaded with all manner of vital topics," says C. John Collins, "such as Gods work of creating the world and mankind; what it means to be human; why our present experience is so different from what we find in Genesis 2; how we come to know God and to be sure of his love." Collins employs a literary-theological method informed by contemporary discourse analysis in order to read passages as coherent wholes. He shows how later biblical and intertestamental writers have used Genesis 14, and reflects on how these chapters shape a Christian worldview today. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
