Genesis

by John Jeske, Northwestern Publishing House (Editor)

Many people have found The People’s Bible to be the most reliable Bible commentary series published. It’s the laypeople’s Bible—down to earth, clearly written, easy to read and understand, filled with practical and contemporary applications. Each volume includes that book’s complete text from the NIV Bible. The Christ-centered commentaries following the Scripture sections contain explanations of the text, historical background, maps, illustrations, and archaeological information. The People’s Bible commentaries are great for personal or group study. Genesis is the first of the five books of Moses and it unfolds God's work through the biographies of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, and others. Starting with the words "In the beginning...," it presents the beginnings, or origins, of the universe, the human race, sin, death, and God's gracious work of bringing fallen humanity back to himself.
