Exalting Jesus in Genesis

Christ-Centered Exposition

by Phillip Bethancourt, David Platt (editor), Daniel L. Akin (editor)

Exalting Jesus in Genesis is part of the Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary series. Edited by David Platt, Daniel L. Akin, and Tony Merida, this commentary series takes a Christ-centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Each chapter explains and applies key passages, providing helpful outlines for study and teaching.   This practical and easy-to-read commentary is designed to help the reader see Christ in Genesis. More devotional than academic, the expositions are presented as sermons and divided into chapters that conclude with a “Reflect & Discuss” section, making this series ideal for small group study, personal devotion, and even sermon preparation.   The CCE series will include 47 volumes when complete; this volume is written by Phillip Bethancourt.

Great for reinforcing how the threads of the gospel originate, progress, and move through the book of Genesis. I love this series of commentaries for that reason. Definitely the most accessible for someone who wants to study Genesis and isn’t particularly familiar or adept with commentary/scholarly material. Certainly not the most technical though, at the same time.

This is an excellent series, but the Genesis volume is not the strongest. It’s ok and I’m not unhappy that I read it but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it. (And I am not a fan of forced alliteration which is almost always awful. Some of the alliteration in this book was confusing and distracting.)

A long amazing study.
