Overview

Early Genesis: Some have relegated it to myth, while others have adopted the traditional Jewish view of the material, with perhaps bits of Christian perspective cobbled on here and there. Both of these approaches are incorrect. While not contradicting the foundation of any essential Christian doctrine, these errors have had serious consequences. Most people who believe the material don't really understand what it is that they believe, and people who dismiss the material do not really understand what it is that they dismiss. For example, from these misunderstandings The LORD (Yahweh) is considered by the popular culture to be an unsympathetic figure. A proper understanding of the text shows this opinion to be the polar opposite of the truth. The post-modern world is flailing away at a straw man with Yahweh's name on it, while the church lacks the full knowledge of the character of Yahweh necessary to demonstrate the fraud of this absurdity. Miraculously, Christ is the key to understanding the events of early Genesis. This book lays out the Christ-Centered model for chapters 1-11 of Genesis. What may seem like primitive myths considered outside the light of the gospel become both history and prophecy when viewed through the lens of the gospel- a powerful testimony to their truth.

Mark Moore has done an incredible job taking themes that I've always struggled with and making sense of them for the first time. The Christ-centered model he's unearthed is far more logical and compelling than anything I've been taught over the last several decades. - Brennan O'Donohoe: Rogers AR The most original and insightful reading on Genesis I have ever had the good fortune of stumbling upon. It is not necessarily an easy read and will require a careful musing salted with prayer but the reward is well worth it. Who says we have to read Genesis the way it has always been traditionally translated and understood. It fills in so many gaps and never once deviates from good solid biblical doctrine. The author is to be commended for his hard work and dedication to this work! - Peter Leonard: Kansas City MO He peels apart Genesis with scholastic talent and a humbling appreciation of both God and the majesty of the holy scriptures. It is a remarkable book and a true gift to read. This book steps out of the realm of the literalist. I am sure some will just not see how much we miss when we attempt the simplify the infinite and fail to look at the majesty of the mystery of God's creation. Mark also seems to once again remind us that Christianity is not a replacement religion that voids our Judeo/Christian roots. Bottom line read the book, take notes and enjoy the journey. - Graham Hetrick: Hershey PA This book is a very well-thought-out, biblically-faithful work which takes us 'back' to the real focus of the Old Testament - the Messiah. It is both a 'fresh' perspective and a reminder of things we have forgotten! Read this and remember, Genesis screams Christ! - David Durham: Wellington New Zeland
