Bible study notes and commentary on the Old Testament book of Genesis. Emphasizes understanding the text with practical applications. Intended to be helpful to all Christians, including teachers and preachers, while avoiding an emphasis on technical issues. Written from the perspective of faith in the Bible as the absolute, inerrant, verbally inspired word of God. Comments include discussion of these topics: * Are Bible accounts of creation and the flood literal history? * Can organic or theistic evolution be harmonized with Scripture? * Are the days of Genesis 1 literal or symbols of long ages? * Were Adam and Eve the first man and woman? * How did sin and death enter the world? * Was Noah's flood worldwide or local? * What promises did God make to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob about the nation of Israel? * How did Joseph interpret Pharaoh's dreams and save his family in Egypt?
