Edwin M. Good offers a new translation of and literary commentary on these chapters, approaching the material as an ancient Hebrew book. Rather than analyzing the chapters in light of any specific religious position, he is interested in what the stories say and how they work as stories, indications in them of their origins as orally performed and transmitted, and how they do and do not connect with one another. Everyone, from those intimately familiar with Genesis to those who have never read it before, will find something new in Genesis 1-11: Tales of the Earliest World. 517 3 $aGenesis one to eleven 606 $aRELIGION / Judaism / Sacred Writings$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aRELIGION / Judaism / Sacred Writings. 676 $a222/.11077 700 $aGood$b Edwin, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01036735 701 $aGood$b Edwin M$g(Edwin Marshall),$f1928-$01036736 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457166903321 996 $aGenesis 1-11$92457242 997 $aUNINA
