Who wrote the Genesis? Mystics. Nomadic Israelites who lived half a millennium before Christ. They authored it for nomadic Israelites who lived half a millennium before Christ. These ancient folks thought, felt, spoke, and wrote differently than we Christians do today. And they didn’t anticipate us. Conclusion: If you want to truly understand the Genesis, you need to consult Rabbi Ya'aqob and not Father Jacob. Sorry, but that's the bloody truth. The good news: Literary archeologists like Jeff Benner do their best in digging out the spiritual gems of ancient scriptures buried under the debris of crumbled dogmas. This book is one of many such efforts. The Old Testament used to be a place of awe and wonder. And its readers used to be humbled by the mind-blowing attainment of men and women who rose their awareness to unthinkable levels. To recall the awe of an ancient scripture to a modern audience is the purpose of this book.
