New Title: Genesis Book

The third installment in Ariel's Bible Commentary Series focuses on the Book of Genesis, which is structured as a series of eleven family histories or toldots, compiled and edited by Moses. Through Dr. Fruchtenbaum's exegesis, the vivid details in Genesis are presented in a way that allows God's Word to make its own case for a literal interpretation of the Bible. His grammatical, historical-geographical approach from a Jewish perspective provides the reader with an exciting new way to understand and unlock the richness of this book, which marks the beginnings of all nations and particularly the nation of Israel.

One of the key insights Dr. Fruchtenbaum offers is how the many genealogies in Genesis relate to God's promises of a Messiah. It becomes clear that Genesis points to the Messiah, who would eventually come out of Israel to redeem the nation and to bless all families of the earth. Furthermore, Genesis presents four of God's eight covenants, with three of them being made with humanity in general and associated with well-known stories like Creation, the Fall, and the Flood. The fourth covenant, an unconditional one with Abraham, marks the beginning of the story of the nation of Israel, based on God's promises of descendants and land to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The account of the nation of Israel that Moses introduces in Genesis continues in the following four books of the Bible.

This commentary on Genesis is an essential resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Bible, as it delves into the historical context of the text and sheds new light on its significance. Dr. Fruchtenbaum's approach brings to life the narratives within Genesis, allowing readers to more fully grasp the connections between the Old and New Testaments. Overall, this installment offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the Book of Genesis, providing readers with a fresh perspective on its profound and enduring message.
