Description
The Bible begins and ends with a revelation of God that gives redemption its basis. In Genesis, we encounter a God of personality, character, purpose, and activity. This foundational book sets things in order: God first, then us. As the Creator of our world and Interactor with human history, God's actions provide context for the salvation story. Dr. John H. Walton explores the timeless relevance of Genesis, revealing how this mysterious book can guide our twenty-first-century lives. By examining the links between Genesis and our own times, Walton shows how this ancient text speaks powerfully today. The NIV Application Commentary Series helps readers bring an ancient message into a postmodern context, explaining not only what the Bible meant but also how it continues to speak to us.
