In the Beginning

Although she treats God a bit too anthropomorphically for my theology at times, KA has done an incredibly thorough reading of Genesis here and presented it in a very accessible format. It's a slim little commentary that reads more like Sparknotes than footnotes. You'll consider the stories of the patriarchs in new ways and learn something about at least one of the characters in Genesis that you hadn't seen before. A great read for anyone seeking more insights into some of the most influential/important stories in Christianity (or Judaism and Islam, for that matter)
