Kass attempts to reveal the underlying meaning to a literal reading of Genesis. He reaches for a symbological, metaphorical, or below the surface interpretationm of the book. Not difficult but tedious.

Many great insights but unfortunately written in the redundacy-filled style of an undergrad writing a 10 page paper and whose ideas have tapped out at 7 pages.

I appreciated his insights and reflections. Also his holding his opinions firmly yet with a seeming open hand on many of the more difficult, ambiguous passages. A great book. I hope to incorporate his patient reflection as I read through the Bible. As a Christian I see the stories and insights

leading to Christ and the Christian message.
