Ranging from the creation and the Garden of Eden to Noah and the flood, continuing through the patriarchs to Joseph, and culminating with a glimpse at the crossing of the Sea of Reeds (entitled: “The Last Creation”), the author, although a neuroscientist by profession, offers numerous insights into literary and linguistic coincidences and correspondences in — primarily — the first book of the Torah.
While I would decline to offer an opinion in the author’s professional field of neuroscience, such is not the case with Torah study; it requires no advanced degrees, only integrity and a dedication to truth. Both abound in this stimulating book, along with a keen sense of language and a feel for literature that are more common among Bible scholars.
