Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Book of Genesis: With a New Translation
Now the Commentary of Professor Murphy on the book of Genesis excels in this respect. The style fitly expresses the thought, and the thought is rich, clear, and vigorous. It is a most readable work, and at the same time very instructive. Rarely does a Hebrew word appear in the expositon. In i'o'dll ing the Commentary, one feels that it must have been intended for the use of the people, even more than for scholars; and I am quite certain that the people will delight to use it, when its fitness to meet their wants and increase their interest in the study of God's Word is known to them. It cannot fail of being, in the end, a popular commentary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
