Genesis / Laurence A. Turner.

• Introduction -- Genesis 1.1-11.26: The primaeval history -- Genesis 11.27-25.18: The Abraham story -- Genesis 25.19-36.43: The Jacob story -- Genesis 37-50: The story of Jacob's family.

• Working from the conviction that Genesis can be read as a coherent whole, this commentary foregrounds the sophistication of Hebrew narrative art, in particular its depiction of plot and character, and the interpretative possibilities raised by its intertextuality. Apparently simple and independent episodes emerge as complex and interconnected, constantly challenging readers to readjust their assessments of characters and expectations of plot development. Approaching the text predominantly from the perspective of a 'first-time reader', this commentary underscores the narrative's surprises, ironies and innovations.
